To continue to provide clarity:
The current version (7.5.11) still has AL2.0 licensing; I just downloaded it to
confirm. Any version from 7.3.7 and newer (at this point in time) is an
acceptable dependency.
If Oracle chooses to change the license again for future releases that could
pose a problem, but personally I don't think that's likely.

Yes, restricting the use of its version number in the project is still a
relatively passive solution: if we want to upgrade the version, but the
corresponding version authorization is adjusted, our project still has
restrictions.
The biggest dependency of replacing this component lies in the
active/standby switching function: currently we are not considering
expanding its scope of use, and we are analyzing the new active/standby
switching scheme, and want to temporarily maintain the existing method
before completing this task, until the real-time active/standby switching
is provided.
I plan to explain this problem in detail in the supplementary binary
dependency package LICENSE, until the solution is adjusted to completely
solve it.
See if this is OK?
