Goal

What is the reason for which a statement is executed in parallel even so all the conditions of having this in serial are met?

The degree for all the tables involved is set to 1

and

parallel_degree_limit      CPU         
parallel_degree_policy     MANUAL

Much more even when setting:

ALTER SESSION DISABLE PARALLEL DML;
ALTER SESSION DISABLE PARALLEL DDL;
ALTER SESSION DISABLE PARALLEL QUERY;


the statement is still executed in parallel.
