Yeah they almost fixed the need to compile and run with the exact same jdk version.

The rest still applies

You don't need to compile and run with the same jdk version. Dunno why you think this.

Not now, not most of the time anyway. I did say mostly fixed

That was not the case back with Java 6 ish. Even massive breakage between minor releases was common. you had to tell everybody exactly which jre to use and possibly ship it with your software
