Be that as it may Premier Support for Java 11 still lasts until September 2023. So yes, Premier Support is down to five from eight years but I don't see how this requires a different licensing model. On a different note my personal experience with Premier Support could best be described as war of attrition. If we won that and got lucky after waiting a few months we got "it's fixed in the next major release". That is the best case. That was with Oracle database, not Java. In general the process is so annoying we won't report a bug unless we absolutely have to. I assume that was the goal behind the design of the process.
