That advice is plain wrong. (And it's not part of the actual Java policy as the page says.) Many Java packages come with jar files for dependencies, i.e. external code where the source is not included in the upstream tarball. Such binaries must be removed and the package should then get a +dfsg suffix. However a .jar or .class file built from included source code should not be removed (but obviously they must not be installed in Debian, but rather the sources must be rebuilt).
