From your analysis, the 37 is not a whole work. It is just organisational
elements and components selected from different layers in the 160+ whole
structure that happen to be drawn from 37 assorted packages.
A comparison of the two whole API works might find those components in similar
places, but that is because the same language is used and both platforms are VM
based middleware.
The 37 is not a whole structure or sequence identifiable within the 160+ whole
work. It is just elements drawn from the structure. It does not qualify as a
coherent organisation, sequence or structure seen within the 160+. In other
words, it does not qualify for copyright protection for a compilation under the
law.
