Do you believe that the thread of oppo find 7 should separated in two: oppo find 7 and oppo find 7a? Do you believe that there will be need for this when the roms start to come out?

No. For the same reason why all the different Galaxy S4 variants are kept under the Galaxy S4 thread.

Find 7A = find7 (kernel defconfig)
Find 7 = find7wx (kernel defconfig) = Find 7S (kernel comments)
Find 7 OnePlus Edition = find7op (kernel source) = OnePlus One (what OnePlus calls it)

Is the hardware in the OnePlus One and the Find 7 really that similar? Or was this said partly tongue-in-cheek?
No way will the same ROM work with all 4 versions of the F7. Just between the 7/7A there's 2 different processors. Maybe that could be settled with just a different kernel but I doubt it.
Addel (product manager for oppo) just confirmed that the same 2.0 beta download can be installed on both 7 and 7a phones. It would seem that roms that don't include the baseband can be installed across the platform.

It is.
Between OnePlus' relation with Oppo, the documented specifications, etc. - Pretty much every difference in the defconfigs/source for the two devices corresponds to the few documented differences in specs between the two devices.
The OnePlus One is a Find 7a with the following tweaks:
1) Nonremovable battery (kernel change: battery authentication disabled)
2) A PN65T instead of PN544 (kernel change: PN65 support in the NFC driver. The PN65 is pointless now that Google has sunsetted hardware SE support)
3) RGB LED instead of the blue-only Skyline (kernel change: different LED driver)
4) Left/right "mirror" reversal. (power button on right of OnePlus, left for F7a, etc.) Kernel change: none
5) MSM8974AC instead of MSM8974AB (kernel change: none, handled automatically at runtime)
So after things get rolling: Find7, Find7a, and OPO owners should be able to flash roms for all devices, followed up by the correct kernel?
