Yes, this is really hard to understand.

I would assume creating the INFORMATION_SCHEMA views based on the existing Oracle views is just a matter of maybe 3-4 days of days work. So it is really not understandable that Oracle does not support this.

But then they probably don't care - after all it's Oracle.
