That may well be the case. However, until all the concerns raised by OpenJDK reviewers who have looked at this PR are addressed to their satisfaction it would not be appropriate to merge this patch.

n.b. That does not automatically mean the course of action the reviewers have recommended has to be followed. A resolution needs to be negotiated according to the merits and risks of the change. However, regarding that negotiation, I'll observe that the (repeated) request to break this change down in several steps appears to me to be motivated by the desire to ensure that the merits of the change are maximized (no unnecessary loss of important functionality) and the risks minimized (no unnecessary perturbation of the current implementation) -- which is not an unusual way for OpenJDK reviewers to proceed.
