       | 
       | I looked it up, it looks like it's generally:
       | 
       | 1. LTS support - adoptopenjdk doesn't do LTS
       | 
       | 2. Patches that come from Amazon that are upstreamed to OpenJDK
       | but appear in Corretto first since, you know, that's where Amazon
       | develops them.
       | 
       | Did I miss anything?
