You missed one: hire one of the many existing providers of Postgres support services. Postgres have a big list of these providers. [0]

I can't comment on how well they perform in practice compared to the conventional monopolised support model that closed-source software tends to offer - perhaps better, perhaps worse - but at least in principle, the solution is there.

There's at the very least some freedom of choice, which makes it so if you don't get a good provider you can see if a different one meets your needs

If Oracle support isn't all the way there the alternative is basically to kick rocks

Assuming decent providers exist, yes, that's an advantage.
