I am amazed that multiple OSS lawyers gave you the same answer and you still don't believe them.

> (what Fortune 500 company would like to have their Red Hat servers all go dead because some employee downloaded sources and uploaded them somewhere?)

What does this mean? Are you implying that RHEL has some sort of kill switch per customer embedded in it's source code that someone could exploit? I am not following this train of thought at all.

Losing access to Redhat services won't immediately bring down your servers, but if you are unable to install security updates or new software without switching to a different distro they might be as good as dead.
