Perhaps he was referring to the difference between Enterprise edition and 
standard edition.

Since when? And where it is written?
That's not true.
See licensing guide
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/license.112/e10594/editions.htm#BABDJGGI
for complete info what is and what isn't extra cost option.

Actually from installed instance with extra cost options (which are
available only for enterprise edition) you CANNOT understand whether
option is legally installed and used or not. This information you have
to find in some adminsitration and licensing docs between your
organization and reseller. There is no way to get to know that from
installed instance because installation process has nothing to do with
license documents.
