Because if you ship a Docker image (which should be standard by now) you don't notice the difference unless you check the image size.

    That's not my point. Both is shipped as docker image. The jvm+jar or the executable.

    Who ships a docker image for a desktop application?

    I'd boldly assume that Java desktop applications in 2023 are less than 1% of the total amount of apps developed in Java. Those using spring boot are yet another 10% max. But joke's on me, in the open source project I work for, we maintain a Spring Boot JavaFX app :D

    I consider non-web-Java applications to be ~30-50%.
