That was one of the questions Dana was asked. She gave an answer implying
that she considered the parentage of a node to be "part of its identity",
i.e. a node could not be moved to a different parent while remaining "the
same node". I personally think this thinking comes from the implementations
she is familiar with, rather than being anything fundamental.
