| 5 | it evaluates to a true, i.e always valid/resolved. And although |
| 6 | explicitly naming an empty group in an ebuild is, probably?, not useful, |
| 7 | I don't see why we'd have a definition that errors out on explicit |
| 8 | definition but not on an implicit reduction, as the package manager |
| 9 | needs to be able to handle the situation anyways. I'm all for banning |
| 10 | the empty construct in QA scope though. |
