Besides completely missing the point of what I wrote, maybe it doesn't need to? Since it will come at no extra cost, it only has to be “good enough".

Really?
Then, seriously, why on earth isn't Octane way cheaper?
If I get what I pay for, what would for example the C4D-plugin price be when it's shipped with complete documentation?
How much will be added once the whole material system isn't an "experimental feature” and on par with the competition?
What price can we expect when there's no risk of being locked out by the licensing system? And so on.

But it doesn't run on Windows Server right? “Supported HW”, does that mean Tesla?

Please take us up on the offer I made for our team to discuss enterprise support over a phone or skype call. That seems like the best way we can help you address the specific issues you have brought up for slave licences beyond 20 GPUs right now. Maybe we can also learn more from your use case going forward.
