Me and my customers are perfectly happy to even pay for the upgrade scripts, just allow us to run them on-prem.

Make it an encrypted binary for all I care, just allow us to run it on-prem.

Edit-due-to-pinky07-reply-edit:) 1+2 - I get all that. Perhaps provide enterprise customers with a GitHub repo to the upgrade scripts? Require the same subscription key like for Enterprise proper. Then you can continue to iterate on the scripts while still giving customers who wants (and pays extra!) for it as a white glove service to run it on their own servers.

Might be that me and some of my customers are old-school "server huggers", but I think it is holy to be able to decide on which CPU and disk my DB is processed on.

Small partner here who absolutely love Odoo for what it is and you can make it to be.

But - I can't wrap my head around why an on-prem customer cannot be allowed to run the upgrade scripts on-prem.

I have almost lost customers to it, and it's a super big headache delaying the upgrade process for both political and technical reasons.

Having tried to discuss the options and reasons with both Odoo support and employees at OXP has been an almost Kafkaesque experience.

Please explain to me like I am 5 years old.
