It seems like you’re speaking generally and don’t know just how evil Oracle is as a vendor. Finding new revenue streams is exactly what Oracle has been doing.

Finding new revenue streams is exactly what Oracle has been doing.
Take just one example - Java. Created in 1995 by SunOS, officially made open source in 2006. Purchased by Oracle in 2009.
Demanded ludicrous runtime licensing fees in 2019.
Want another example? MySQL.
I know first hand of a handful of large cap companies completely shedding themselves of Oracle and have heard of many more that plan to.
