How could someone with any dev experience think this is reasonable, let alone enforceable?
You can get most of this with the gpl2 plus classpath exception at the university of linz site. Or the relevant openjdk repository. the other version has autovectorisation and this graal.js. But the team hopes to opensource that too. So once it's production ready the license will change to the standard oracle jdk or openjdk one as you wish.

Considering the Google/Java court battles. I wouldn't touch anything made by Oracle with a 20 foot pole.
The great team keeps on surprising me in nice ways. If this js and java integration works as nice as demonstrated we could use a js frontend on our java backend without going via json objects over the wire but in one process.
