Yes, thanks. It's just that there isn't a conflict if opatch is programmed to deal with the one-off situation, which it is, so why announce it at all. As is, opatch just says, "Danger, Will Robinson" when there isn't any.
When I asked this question Oracle said:
"We put in this warning as a standard practice with ALL interim (one-off) patches, not just Security patches, because the application of any patch can add risk to the processing environment."
I'm aware of that, but the answer is off topic from the question.
