There is no such thing as a "one-time issue" with RHEL.
True.
You have to pay for a yearly minimum support contract, for the right to use software that has their trade marked brand name and logo's embedded.
False.
You are paying for support and updates, access to the KB, the Certifications (Common Criteria, FIPS, etc, etc), reference architectures, etc. NOT for the use of the trademarked brand name / logo's
Once that runs out, you should either renew, or remove the offending binaries, documentation and logos off your systems.
False.
Once your subscription runs out, your RHN account will be locked, and you will not be able to get updates, access the KB or enter support tickets.
You do get update binaries in this minimal contract, which is what you really want anyway. Waiting for CentOS to come up with those may be the difference in having your systems compromised or not. There's nothing wrong with CentOS, but it's always behind RHEL, because of the mere concept of it.

Cray linux, which as I understand is a derivative of SuSE
Without Red Hat there would be no CentOS, and even with Red Hat doing the lions share of the work, the CentOS folks have a hell of a time getting updates, patches, security fixes out.
