I would think that one and only one thing would be of paramount concern to the
customer, but then maybe not. Anyway, if you use Sql*Server your tied to the
MicroSlop proprietary/buggy/hacker friendly/expensive software stack from then
on. Oracle on the other hand will run on Open Source Linux just as well, if
not better.

You won't find an unbiased comparison of the 2, it doesn't exist. I'm fairly
sure that pcweek used to have a comparison that showed Oracle on top but
that seems to have gone.
BTW You should note that hot backups are perfectly possible - indeed the
default - in sqlserver.
