I agree with the classpath issue and hopefully it will be fix in Java 9. Separate jvm install? Why? JVM is backwards compatibility.

Those that develop non server apps since Java is a general-purpose language.

Yes. I'm serverside generally.

The JVM is, but sometimes there are things that require specific bug fixes in the GC for example where it's just a big issue combining the jars with the JVM etc.

My only put is that a single thing to deploy is easier than multiple.
