Possibly showing bad netiquette, I will answer my own question:

----------------------------
I'm getting confused so I thought I'd ask the group.

When I log in to MOS and try to download a SRSS-related patch [say, 140993-06], 
I get a message that says I don't have the privilege of downloading that patch; 
I need "Software" access.

When I look at the details of my CSIDs, they all say the same thing in the 
"Patch Download Access" field:  

Operating System
Firmware
Public

I'm assuming that if I had the "Software" access that the error message is 
telling me about, it would say "Software" in the "Patch Download Access" field.

Am I correct?

If so, what do I need to order on my maintenance contract to get "Software" 
access?  Maybe I'm not using the right terminology when I communicate with 
Oracle but so far this seemingly simply answer has eluded me.

Thanks.

All of the CSIs I was looking at were "hardware-specific", although I didn't 
know enough MOS terminology to figure that out.  The CSI type said "Premiere 
Support for Systems".  The "Systems" is the key:  that means HW.

If I had read 
https://support.oracle.com/CSP/main/article?cmd=show&type=NOT&doctype=REFERENCE&id=1269292.1
 more carefully, I would have seen near the bottom where "Software" requires 
"Premier Support for Software" [kinda logical, eh?].

Once I figured this out, I happened to have a support contract with an 
unactivated CSI which corresponded to software support.  Once I activated it, 
logged out and back in, I was able to get to my SRSS software patches.
