Option Buying Not Allowed

While I understand the limitation that a single broker cannot consume more than 15% OI, is it even legal that Zerodha blocks buying options while allowing to sell the same option contract? Buying options by paying full premium carries limited loss risk for client and zero risk for the broker. Blocking buy trades and allowing sell traders only mean that Zerodha wants people to churn (to earn higher brokerage) and also earn float on the margins. @nithin Please clarify on this aspect. Else we will have to go elsewhere to search for answers.
