If there needs to be more complete accounting of tests not run on each platform, it belongs as a feature in jtreg. Switching to use SkippedException in some tests but not having a clear and consistent distinction seems like just making things more complicated and harder to understand on a test by test basis. The ship may have sailed here, but a more consistent pattern should be developed. ------------- PR Review: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/24860#pullrequestreview-2800046182
