The good reason is this:
* heading
** A child
*** a grand child
if you try to move the grand child up, the integrity of the
tree is broken because then you have
* heading
*** a grand child
** A child
Even worse if you move a child beyond the first top-level heading.
I do M-left M-up M-right to get past a parent. When moving down,
M-left M-down M-right will get you to the end of that subtree, but
otherwise it works just fine.

I always supposed there was some Good Reason (tm) for prohibiting
this, which I hadn't yet understood, so I never asked for it before.
But since PT asked, I'll join in.

Often I want to move an item or a subtree to an other location
with M-up/down and I get the message "Cannot move past superior
level".
I think there could be an option allowing this behavior. In
practice I found sometimes it would be quicker and easier to move
stuff under a different heading in the same file by simply using
Meta+cursor keys than using the refill interface.
