The ability to move data from/to an array/variable w/ dissimilar lengths. This is somewhat replaceable if the starting bucket is constant, by using a DS w/ the OVERLAY keyword. But if the source or target bucket is not known until runtime, MOVEA is the most elegant way to accomplish it. Pointers can accomplish the task, but is NOT as elegant or as easy to debug.
