The statement that convection currents only move oceanic crust is inaccurate. While convection currents in the mantle primarily drive the movement of both oceanic and continental crust, they specifically influence the formation and movement of oceanic crust at mid-ocean ridges. Additionally, tectonic processes such as subduction and continental drift affect both types of crust, indicating that convection currents play a broader role in plate tectonics than the statement suggests.
