The upstream kernel removes support for many hardware devices and software features; getting these back is a painful exercise with El Repo when it is possible.

Oracle's UEKR7 is worth the wait; booting on the RHCK can make many things on a new or installed system go dark.

Our goal is to GA a "major" release within 3 months of the upstream release. The Oracle Linux operating environment includes items and features that are not included with the other Enterprise Linux distros mentioned... Some examples include: the UEK, Ksplice zero downtime updates, Dtrace, btrfs, Oracle Linux Virtualization, Oracle Linux Manager client, cloud images, and more. Integration and QA of these features takes time. Check the Oracle Linux Blog https://blogs.oracle.com/linux for Oracle Linux 9 announcements, coming soon!

I thought the x86-64-v2 issue was more a glibc thing than kernel related, and by re-integrating x86-64-v1 support Oracle would give up the binary compatibility, or am I mistaken?
