Materialized View UNION different tables 10g.

Question

I am trying to create a materialized view from 2 different tables. According the documentation for 10G it should be available.
Here is my script.
DROP MATERIALIZED VIEW PERSON_MV_T16;
CREATE MATERIALIZED VIEW PERSON_MV_T16 refresh complete on demand
AS
SELECT
CAST(P.MARKER AS VARCHAR2(4)) AS MARKER,
P.ROWID P_ROW_ID,
CAST(P.ACTIVE_IND_DT AS DATE) AS ACTIVE_IND_DT
FROM PERSON_ORGS_APEX_MV P
UNION
SELECT
CAST(P.MARKER AS VARCHAR2(4)) AS MARKER,
P.ROWID P_ROW_ID,
CAST(P.ACTIVE_IND_DT AS DATE) AS ACTIVE_IND_DT
FROM PERSON_ORGS_APVX_MV P
delete from mv_capabilities_table;
begin
dbms_mview.explain_mview('PEOPLE.PERSON_MV_T16');
end;
select *
from mv_capabilities_table where capability_name not like '%PCT%' and capability_name = 'REFRESH_FAST_AFTER_INSERT';
I get the following error.
CAPABILITY_NAME = REFRESH_FAST_AFTER_INSERT
POSSIBLE = N
MSGTEXT = tables must be identical across the UNION operator
I wrapped them in CAST operations just to be sure they are the same type and size.

As far as I'm aware, you can create MV in standard and also there is no limitation that I'm aware off
Standard and Enterprise Edition
A. Basic replication (MV replication)
\- transaction based
- row-level
- asynchronous from master table to MV (Materialized View)
- DML replication only
- database 7 / 8.0 / 8i / 9i / 10g
Variants:
1. Read-only MV replication
2. Updateable MV replication:
2.1 asynchronous from MV to master
2.2 synchronous from MV to master
3. Writeable MV replication
Enterprise Edition only
B. Multimaster replication
\- transaction based
- row-level or procedural
- asynchronous or synchronous
- DML and DDL replication
- database 7 / 8.0 / 8i / 9i / 10g
- Enterprise Edition only
Variants:
1. row-level asynchronous replication
2. row-level synchronous replication
3. procedural asynchronous replication
4. procedural synchronous replication
C. Streams replication
(Standard Edition 10g can execute Apply process)
\- (redo) log based
- row-level
- asynchronous
- DML and DDL replication
- database 9i / 10g (10g has Down Streams Capture)
