Show me an object-code RPM in RHEL for which Red Hat, Inc. do not
provide the open source / free software source code under the specified
copyleft or permissive licence, then

You'll pardon me if I don't hold my breath waiting.

You seem to be trying to imply without saying so that the source-access
obligations of copyleft licences somehow give you additional rights in
other areas _other_ than source acccess.  What I'm saying is, no, that's
just not the case.

Many people dislike that fact.  You're hardly the first.
