That's no longer the case. If you have one, you can "purchase" the other for free. See https://www.minecraft.net/en-us/article/java---bedrock-edition-pc-out-june-7 https://www.minecraft.net/en-us/article/java---bedrock-editi... and https://help.minecraft.net/hc/en-us/articles/6657208607501 https://help.minecraft.net/hc/en-us/articles/6657208607501 for details.
Also, there are mods for the Java server which allow both Java and Bedrock clients to connect to the same server and play together. I don't know the details, but I have played in a server which used these mods.

I am running a vanilla SMP for my son, and he plays primarily on the switch. I use a Java server running Fabric and Geyser/Floodgate in order to allow his switch to connect to the server. Everything runs smoothly, so far.

Afaik there are quite a few behavioral differences between the two, especially for technical things like redstone and pistons.
