Uhuu why would that cost time and money, well I can agree on the time thingy do but it's do-able for sure that's how 90% out of all distros today have been started Centos as a perfect example to this, built upon RHEL but modified and developed with a lot of TLC, but yeah it could be done.

So STOW = "SuSE The Original Way" would be to continue SuSE as it was before selling to Novell.
You can't use a 3+ year-old distro (Novell bought SUSE 3 years ago) without it being upgraded re packages (eg kernel) and security. To do that requires a lot of time, energy, commitment and (yes) money. So this idea, and the idea of a "fork", are really non-starters. SUSE 9.2 was indeed very good, *at that time*.
