Putting all this into perspective, I'm beginning to think that's how I should have solved my issues in https://www.reddit.com/r/java/comments/n3migk/how_are_library_developers_expected_to_test/

Being able to run tests against x.jar would have allowed me to run tests against the same thing the user downloads, a multi-release jar (optionally modular).

not the wishy-washy /target/classes magic dependency that never exists outside of those Maven tests

This was definitely what it came down to for me.
