That raises another doubt. For an simple insert statement, could also
update the UET$ or FET$ tables? So, if the purpose was to preserve all
changes to the data dictionary, What's different between OBJ$, COL$ and
these space management tables?

Thanks

My guess will be to preserve the changes to the data dictionary, which are
just Oracle tables anyway. When you create a table, a record goes to TAB$,
SEG$ and so on and so forth. Unless there is a commit these information is
not visible.

But now that you asked, I wnder why the same objective couldn't have been
done through autonomous transactions.
