Indeed, the serious answer is:
move handles overlapping memory blocks correctly (so the data might not
existing anymore at the old location), memcpy doesn't do this and screws
things up when handling overlapping blocks. This is why e.g. C++ has
memmove as well which is more expensive than memcpy due to overlap checks.
