If you're forced to build a wall between "real Java" and "free Java" when you distribute them, it's not much use. You'd have to ship two copies of every free Java library, you wouldn't be able to name both of them "/usr/bin/java" via an alternatives system, etc. So even if you can come up with a way to distribute them together, the license forces you to cripple one of them.
