We have used this SE and SE ONE licensing feature recently to make the
price more attractive to our customers. If somebody is yet doubtful I
think the best proof is that noone hunts down our customers :) as well
as publicly available tpc results.

For example for SE
http://www.tpc.org/tpcc/results/tpcc_result_detail.asp?id=109012001
Total # of Processors:   4
Total # of Cores:       24

and SE ONE
http://www.tpc.org/tpcc/results/tpcc_result_detail.asp?id=109033001
Total # of Processors:   2
Total # of Cores:       8
