I love the Oxford comma too, but that's not an example of one. The Oxford comma is about using one along with the conjunction at the end of a list instead of using the conjunction alone, e.g. "a, b, and c" instead of "a, b and c."
The definition of the Oxford Comma is a fact, not an opinion. It isn't valid to disagree.
I nearly had a aneurysm when I hit up drive-thru for lunch today and they had a sign that starting July 1st the city of Edmonton will require a $0.15 surcharge for take-out bags.

Edmonton buddy!!!
