What's the point? Linux has surpassed Solaris in every way. The only possible explanation for this I can think of is: There may be some companies stuck with some software that only runs on solaris, and they need to keep onboarding new engineers to deal with it, and they want those engineers to go through solaris training, and this makes the training go more smoothly, since the trainees don't have to sync with a license server. But, it's a stretch.

I think anyone would be a fool to use software licensed from Oracle, but if that part doesn't bother you, on the technical side there may be benefits.
