I have yet to see an explanation where people are benefitting daily from
OBP's add features.

If I have SLAs, where I promised my customers an uptime of 99.x %, and
have to pay a penalty, when I don't keep to the SLA, I need the OBP
when a server fails.

If I only have a BIOS, I have to dress, and to drive to the server room
to reset / restart the server. That is extra downtime, which can be
avoided.

See...herein lies the problem. You don't have to do this with PC servers
either. Assuming that the server in question has LOM functionality. All
of what has been described is available via LOM. I don't mean any
disrespect with this comment but it seems that you're not very
knowledgeable about PC servers.
