I mention the DELETE/INSERT cycle as a example; if you DELETE a row, the perform some stuff, and INSERT it again (God knows why :-) I wouldn't speculate in whether Oracle places the row in the same place as it were (the database wouldn't "know" that is was the same row). I will agree that this very explanation is probably not a big killer for you though unless you do those kind of operations :-)
