I have no experience with other editions of Minecraft, so I will mostly just list mistakes I found in the Java edition column of the platform comparison table found on https://www.minecraft.net/en-us/get-minecraft:
"Split screen multiplayer" not checked. It might require some tinkering to send keyboard input to two windows at once, but it is definitely possible. At least on Linux it is, I have not researched this for other operating systems.
"(online multiplayer requires subscription sold separately)": This is incorrect, only Realms requires subscriptions, regular servers do not.
"Controller/touch support" not checked. Touch support is explicitly implemented, there is an option to enable touchscreen mode. Controller support depends on the controller, but that's the case for all the other devices in the list anyway. In the easiest case you just need to bind a controller button to an action like a regular key.
"Minecraft Marketplace": It's not incorrect that Minecraft Java doesn't have this, but the missing checkmark makes it look like it's missing that feature, while the exact opposite is the case, there is much MORE community content available for it, usually even for free.
"Downloadable content" not checked. Of course you can download content for Minecraft Java.
"Official featured multiplayer servers": Having this unchecked makes it look like something negative, while in reality those are ads for servers (as far as I know impossible to remove), so not having them is usually something desirable.
"Achievements/Trophies" not checked: Either this is extreme nitpicking, because they're called "advancements" in the newer versions of Minecraft Java or this box is simply false.
"Parental controls with Xbox Live or Microsoft account" not checked: This was now implemented in MCJava.
The remaining points seem correct to me, but the entire table is heavily skewed towards MCBE, by listing lots of features that MCBE has and omitting lots of features that MCJava has, like the 1.13+ commands system, datapacks, the 1.9+ combat system, the offhand, uncensored chat and pretty much everything on this page: https://minecraft.gamepedia.com/Java_Edition_exclusive_features
On the other hand, lots of MCBE features are also omitted, which would give a better impression of the game, like the Education edition features and everything on this page: https://minecraft.gamepedia.com/Bedrock_Edition_exclusive_features
It's also weird how "Windows 10" is grouped together with Java edition, which is a completely separate game, but not with "mobile" and "current gen consoles".

Regarding "mods": It probably considers add-ons and the JavaScript scripting they support as mods.
WEB-1839 that got resolved as a duplicate of this had one detail that is missing from fabian's report - it claimed "Host your own server" should be unticked in the Windows 10 column.
While IIRC the the possibility to self host does indeed exist on Win10, I'm not going to install the OS just to test that, and will just point out the bit of information lost by that duplicate closure.
There indeed is a dedicated server software for the bedrock edition you can connect to from any bedrock edition client.
You can run the server software on either Windows or Ubuntu, going from this page: https://www.minecraft.net/en-us/download/server/bedrock
The table was updated and now "Mods" is checked for MCJava instead of for all except MCJava. That makes it look like those were officially supported, which is not the case. If community content was included, then "Raytracing" would also have to be checked, since there is a mod for that. This is quite an edge case, so I left it out of the report for now.
While some of these points can be disputed or slightly modified to earn some extra checks, I still feel the current table is correct. When in doubt, ask yourself what Mojang Studios have committed to fully support.
It's worth noting that if you download the table as PDF or highlight the features, you get some additional information about each feature.
"Tinkering" is not something we require users to do, so we do not support split screen for Java Edition
"Online multiplayer subscription" refers to the different consoles' subscription service which you need to buy to play multiplayer for purchased games
"Controller support" is not supported by Java Edition because we do not allow you to rebind buttons in the game, or even detect the controller for that matter. While you might be able to "tinker" again, it's beyond the scope of features we provide
minecraft.net/marketplace does not officially support Java Edition, thus there is no check. (Other) "community content" falls outside of the Marketplace's offerings, and again requires "tinkering"
Downloadable Content is clarified as DLCs, which Minecraft: Java Edition does not have
Whether you like or use "Official featured multiplayer servers" or not is beyond the point, we do not make official recommendations for servers on Java Edition
"Achievements/Trophies" is referencing Xbox Achievements, something you can earn and show others. Java Edition does not have this, only local advancements which are meant to guide you when exploring Minecraft
Parental controls is not fully implemented yet, there is some work remaining before we can satisfiably check this off
"we do not allow you to rebind buttons in the game" There is a controls menu for exactly that.
Unless the table changed again since my latest comment here, it's still heavily skewed, which is not a valid bug, but unfair. I've just seen the trailer on the official Minecraft YouTube channel, that looks a lot fairer.
In theory this could be split into lots of tiny separate reports, but it would make a giant mess of reports and some of them would surely get overlooked when handling the others.
