Yes, you are missing something.

The quote supplied in the original post says no support will be offered for "programs licensed under this agreement"

Which agreement is that? The one on OTN for development use.

In part, it says this:

"We grant you a nonexclusive, nontransferable limited license to use the programs only for the purpose of developing a single prototype of your application, and not for any other purpose. "

If you already have licensing in place for Oracle which includes support, this really doesn't apply to you.

If you don't have a license, you will not be able to access MetaLink, which is the primary means of support.

Hope that clears it up.
