I don't understand where you have this information from.

Plenty of software comes with Java embedded - ie. IntelliJ Idea. Last time I installed Java was on a digital ocean remote box and I did it through apt-get.

Java may have some licensing that cause some open source system distributions not to include it but that is really their game.

yes, you can install open jre through repos.

most applications put "oracle jre" in their dependencies though.
