There are just various organization stepping up to support and backport fixes - eg. https://adoptopenjdk.net/support.html I'm strongly assuming there will be agreement on which releases count as LTS - my "hoping" was mostly in jest, although it isn't entirely explicit. And hopefully Linux distros will be sensible about this too.
