I was the Resolutions Coordinator for NYS PTA for a while: I insisted we update our documents to include it. For exactly the reason you gave: it reduces confusion. When you’re advocating with legislators, ensuring they know exactly what you’re asking for is critical. I too am an Oxford advocate!

I always have arguments with my clients about this, especially since I write for the tech industry. Precision is critical in this industry, so I never understood why some don’t want to use it. It reduces confusion & errors!

(BTW – AP allows the Oxford comma in certain situations, though they discourage it overall. I just looked this up yesterday as I was curious.)
