That sounds very much like the issue fixed with
<https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/plugins/gitiles/core/+/27c6d1dbdb3dcad02a244ab942adb9222a461e44%5E!/>
"Avoid calling java.lang.Class.newInstance()".  I have requested a backport to
LO 6.2.x now at <https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/c/71347/> "Avoid calling
java.lang.Class.newInstance()".

(But not sure why Alex flagged this as "regression"?)

There should be no issue installing multiple JDKs on macOS.  Then, in LO, go to
"LibreOffice - Preferences... - LibreOffice - Advanced" to select a specific
Java version to use.
