> OpenJDK is never preferred or wanted

I would argue it's actually risky.

Almost every Java developer uses the Oracle version because (a) it is what is recommended for OSX which is a popular development platform and (b) the bundled tooling is much better than OpenJDK. Hence you shouldn't mix/match JVMs just in case you hit implementation differences.
