I don't think that's correct; AFAIK OEL has always pulled directly from RHEL sources. That is, they were a sibling, not a downstream of CentOS. I am open to the idea that CentOS was basically collateral damage as Red Hat attempted to block Oracle, but that's not the same thing.

That's what I'm suggesting - the only way RHEL could block OEL is to also kill off CentOS as we knew it.
