Zulip makes it possible to move messages between topics. This is
useful for keeping messages organized when there is a digression, or

message_edit: Only move muted topic records when moving whole topics. Our original implementation of moving muted topic records when a topic is moved took a shortcut of treating all change_later usage as something with intent to move the whole topic.
