Yes, I care. Because while jetbrains makes an excellent IDE in terms of functionality, they have extremely shitty startup times and garbage collection pauses. These are both areas that have received a lot of attention in the reference JVM in the versions subsequent to their fork. All of the performance problems literally disappear by using a newer OpenJDK version, but then the GUI starts to look and act weird.
I don't know why you would assume that I am asking for them to not package a JDK at all. That's a fucking absurd assumption, and nothing i have said has even suggested that. All I'm asking for is for them to upstream their improvements and package their IDEs with OpenJDK by default so we don't have to choose between Jetbrains improvements or OpenJDK improvements.
