I very frequently use Alt-Space to open this menu, then M and an arrow key to start moving windows that are positioned on a monitor that I've powered down and don't want to turn back on. Is its analog Alt-Minus still useful in any programs?

To move windows between displays, you can also use Win+shift+left or Win+shift+right.

I'm using a classic IBM Model M so I have to remember the ancient shortcuts like Alt-Space and Ctrl-Esc, but that's definitely useful to know.
