the correct incantation to start the installer that way as well?

Do you set that system property because you prefer grayscale anti-aliasing over subpixel rendering in general? Or are you not seeing the following JDK 12 font fix on your system?

OpenJDK FreeType font fix for Debian & Ubuntu

See the "before" and "after" screenshots for the difference the fix made to the default font rendering:

You can run the project to see how your system is rendering that particular font (Source Code Pro).

Thanks,
John
