Since JDK 9 and modules, the idea of a prebuilt JRE is no longer providing much value. The idea is rather that you link together an image with the modules and settings you actually need, either with or without your application. For this reason oracle will no longer ship JRE images that differ content wise to the JDK image in JDK 11 and we would like to remove them from the OpenJDK build to reduce complexity.
