I wonder if that legal theory has ever been tested? I admit I'm sceptical that it would hold up in court.

I think

    Our hard work

might have been tested in the Psystar case.

(I personally also find it quite pleasing, esp. compared to the Oracle soup which in my mind fails to resonate as a poem)

It shouldn't. I believe clauses in place to support interoperability of software would cover it.
