Which is exactly what I said. The license does not require you to contribute back. The license also does not require Red Hat to give you the source code, unless they distribute the binaries to you (through their subscription service).

The difference is that RedHat changed the status quo. Perhaps not illegal but worthy of complaint and contempt.
