It seems a lot like common sense when you use the oxford comma. The argument that states it "better matches the spoken cadence of sentences" should be taken into account more often. I like to use the "Oxford Comma" in my writing because that is the way I would say things out loud.
There sure are a lot of arguments based on commas out there in the world. I do like using the oxford comma, though, because it looks the way it should sound.
So that's what it's called. I have always been in favor of using it and just last month got into a discussion with colleagues about its pros and cons. Debbie Hollingsworth

Another thing I have to look very closely at. This is confusing for me. I do not know if I will use it. Good points for both sides. Good article

Overall, it makes sense. There are a lot of rules, though!

I like the oxford comma. I am in favor of it.
I do not like using the oxford comma. It is silly, unnecessary and a wasteful key stroke. :D
