“not sure what Oracle is trying to achieve here“

Yeah, this seems weird.

Perhaps they aren't trying to achieve anything at all, and this opening is just the small visible part of some internal conflict where one participant used to advocate for a grand open source Solaris strategy. Resolved by giving that participant this partial opening as a token concession.

There is no internal conflict. This is Oracle you're talking about.
