The issue, here, is about how Java ends up being required and the way
the absence of a suitable JRE derails users in the current

The issue is also what we mean by "essential" functionality.
True, Base is quite limited if you don't have a JRE; but the majority of
users do not need or want to use Base.
And the situation is not much different for the "online" (in-app, I
mean) help; while it is often good and written with care, most users are
now used to searching the web instead of using the internal resources,
and Help is quite functional anyway even without a JRE.
