Perhaps a silly question

Greetings,

One of our applications has been built on RHEL4 using Oracle 10.2.0.3.0
Standard Edition. The owner of this application is interested in the
possibility up upgrading this to Enterprise Edition (I'll forgo the
details of the needs). I have found the documentation explaining how to
do this and have explained it requires a reinstallation of Oracle. The
user has the idea that there is no difference between the installation
of standard and enterprise edition of Oracle and one merely needs to
throw a couple of switches to make the change. Can someone tell me how
to prove that it isn't that simple. What hard evidence can I use to show
that a reinstallation is required? Of course if it is that simple I
suppose that would be nice too. Licensing and other concerns are not at
issue here, this is merely a technical question.

Thanks.
