Yeesh, you're right, that's pretty bad. The assumption that the customer isn't going to need to update the database version (and thus shell out more...) in those 10 years invalidates the cost assumptions all on its own.
There's legitimate reasons to buy from the big three DB providers: there's a shortage of quality DBAs for postgres, and of course there are the 5-10% of cases that actually need the features/performance of the big 3. Evaluations like this, however, do not make a good case.
