Most recent java version is supported for 6 months and then the next one.

Think of Java versions as patch releases for Java 8. There are minor changes between releases.

Sure, but that's regular releases, not LTS
What's the difference between LTS and LATEST?

Lack of features? Sorry they added shenandoah in JDK 11, AFTER release.

No code breaking changes? Sorry JDK 8 u2xx broke my code that worked on u6x.
