So you were talking about the purpose was making the user's life "safer", now you say that DB vendors need a CLA for contribution. Sorry, now I'm confused.
You are easily confused :) I suggest you to read detailed explanations I wrote previously. It makes both safer to use and easier to contribute for them (and also encourages contribution since common work can be used by the contributor lately).
And btw. the mentioned companies, even IBM, seem to be able to contribute without a CLA (with tests and even a few fixes for the engine...)
I do not feel I am qualified to judge what and when IBM can and can not do :)
