I actually need Java for work, but I don't really need anything beyond 
java-1.8.0-openjdk (or maybe a newer version in the future). As an IDE, I 
have to use NetBeans directly from upstream because the Fedora package was 
discontinued years ago, sadly. And for libraries, all the (non-JDK/JRE) JARs 
our projects need are checked in in our repositories anyway, so I don't need 
any Java system libraries.

(Well, currently, I use a system Tomcat package for local testing, but I 
don't even use it as a system service, but with a CATALINA_BASE in my home 
directory, so I'm quite likely to just switch to unpacking the upstream 
Tomcat directly there at some point.)
