This case seems unusual in the fact that the code in question was already free to use and fork under the terms of OpenJDK, so paying Oracle for a license was not the only alternative. How would one calculate damages relative to the scenario where Google simply used OpenJDK as they are doing now?

Maybe Google is doing things that the "Classpath Exception" doesn't cover, which would expose them to parts of of the GPL that don't work for them?
