    If I have two data files in my database, both on D:\, and I want to move one to E:\ and one to F:\, if I run an alter to move one to E:\ but I forget to move the other one to F:\ the database will happily come online with one data file on D:\ and one on E:\.)

    if you left the old file in place yes it would. If you moved the file instead of copying it would fail to come online.

    I never said otherwise.

    Look it's your opinion and you're entitled to it

    I feel like I should thank you for allowing me my opinion :hehe:

    at the end of the day it's unnecessary to go single user first just take the data straight offline.

    Agreed (note: this is the second time I am agreeing with you on this point).
