Dumb comic aside, what's the argument against the Oxford comma? Who thinks it's a good idea to leave out a separator in a separated list?

The conjunction 'and' is the separator. The Oxford Comma is redundant.

The most common source of problems comes from the use of commas to provide supplementary information.
>Joe Biden, president of the United States, did such and such yesterday.
Assume you don't know where this gif is from. If I said:
>This, The Haunting of Zombie Island, and The Case of the Headless Mummy are my favorite Scooby-Doo movies.
it would be unclear if I was talking about two movies or three. Without the Oxford comma it's clear I'm talking about two movies and saying the gif is from The Haunting of Zombie Island. Each system can produce ambiguity, so I see no reason to use the one with more characters.
