I'd say neither. It just means you can't sell Java apps through the Mac store. Makes sense to me, they want quality control, and the only Java app I've ever seen that feels remotely like it belongs on OS X is Cyberduck. Two minutes with soapUI on a Mac would make anybody think twice about giving Java apps the tacit approval that comes with sale in the official store.
