Right but I find it inelegant.

There is apparently very few interest in Debian to have Java packages properly 
packaged since no Java policy yet have meet approval or even interest. Using several 
different Java compilers and/or VMs on Debian is still a pain because tools are not 
well integrated.

If we had a policy which meets a rough consensus, you could tell him "Because it is
