I didn't mean to say you were wrong in what you chose to write, but also that it wasn't wrong for someone to be highly skeptical of its authenticity. Write what you want and people will take it as they will, I just wanted to point out that how the GP comment took it wasn't without some basis.
As to the merits of your thesis, I'll outline my understanding of it & my thoughts in response:
1) You're proposing OEL as an alternative for RHEL (and other such offerings)
2) People might object to it based on Oracle's reputation (well deserved)
3) People should put that repulsion aside though because...
4) Oracle really is letting people use it for free so users don't have to enter into a $ relationship with this predatory company
However:
People choose RHEL (or any paid enterprise distro) primarily because of the support contracts that guarantee service. This undermines your appeal in #3 & #4 above because it requires the exact thing you're saying users can avoid to overcome their repulsion.
Also, if enough people start using this distro then I have no doubt that Oracle will at some point switch things up and try to monetize that userbase under threat of crippling legal bills.
I say all of this as someone who has actually been deposed by lawyers in a lawsuit with Oracle, where events leading up to the lawsuit were very much a bait-and-switch. I won't bog down this comment with the details but if you're interested in the exact nature of that bait & switch let me know and I'll comment in reply-- it may change your mind (or not) about trusting Oracle not to do something like that with OEL
