I use LTS in my project, my project is an big enterprise product, sell to big companies and govs/banks, some customer have very strict control on security, e.g. In one of my customers, a big bank, there's a seperate secutiry team, the team scan my the servers with my product monthly, onces the scans found any security issue(generally they are CVEs), the securty team notify product team those security issues my be fixed in 2 days, or network to/from those servers will be blocked. So we got highest level support case. In my case, security fix for java is very important, and it's not a good idea to follow non-lts java releases(there's no overlap in java's minor releases).
