Also I think RHEL 8.0 itself is a short-lived release, the recently
released 8.1 has longer support:

Perhaps Oracle is going to certify the DB on RHEL 8.1 or later... or will
use this to encourage people to move to Oracle 20c or something...

That's correct.
I'm a *little* surprised that there is no such certification introduced
for 19.4 since 19c is supposed to be a LTS release and many people will
currently be running on RH6 which it also doesn't support. I do appreciate
that the timing is difficult for Oracle since RH8 was only released
*after* 19c and the historic nature of certification is that database
releases were only certified against commercially available operating
systems.

Unless I've missed something, at present, there is no version of Oracle
RDBMS that is certified with Red Hat Enterprise Linux, version 8. Does
anybody have different information?
