RE: Standby Database Licensing

Yes, I believe you have it right.  The Data Guard feature is included
with Enterprise Edition for no extra cost - see here:

It is the standby database that must be licensed, regardless of whether
or not you are using Data Guard.  This doc also has some more detail:

I am not a license expert by any stretch of the imagination, but in
reading the document, I didn't think it was the capability that had to
be licensed but rather the fact that you have to be covered by your
licensing terms to run Oracle instances on multiple servers.
