This question probably applies to other data dictionary views as well.

...

Ordinarily, if a view has a column named "PARTITIONING_TYPE", I expect to find, in the view's source, a column or alias that reads "partitioning_type". Instead, I see unnamed derived columns, and named columns, that seem to be magically transformed to different names that show up in user_part_tables.

Which brings me to my question: What makes the magical column name transformation happen? What piece of this puzzle am I missing?
