Just to add a bit of clarification to this, if you do decide to go with the
delete route, transactions that are in the former account are merged into
latter one.

Uh .... if your intent is to MOVE an account to a  different place in the CoA, simply change its parent. Same if you want a different name for the account, just rename it. In either of those situations you are not intending to alter any transactions, so why touch them.

Yes, delete will work IF the destination account is empty. But moving by delete is a MERGE operation (merge the transactions in the account being deleted wit the transactions already in the destination account. However, how would you demonstrate afterwords that it had been empty?
