-                 * `sourceDirectory`, `testSourceDirectory` and

<source> element

because
-                 * Maven provides default values for those elements which may 
conflict

<sources> configuration:

-                 * Additionally, for modular projects, legacy directories are 
unconditionally
-                 * ignored because it is not clear how to dispatch their 
content between
-                 * different modules. A warning is emitted if these properties 
are explicitly set.
+                 * 1. CLASSIC projects (no <sources>):
+                 *    - All legacy directories are used
+                 *
+                 * 2. MODULAR projects (have <module> in <sources>):
+                 *    - ALL legacy directories are rejected (can't dispatch 
between modules)
+                 *    - Physical presence of default directories 
(src/main/java) also triggers ERROR
+                 *
+                 * 3. NON-MODULAR projects with <sources>:
+                 *    - Explicit legacy directories (differ from default) are 
always rejected
+                 *    - If <sources> has Java for a scope: legacy is not used 
(even if matching default)
+                 *    - If <sources> has no Java for a scope: legacy is used 
as implicit fallback

Review Comment:
   Same commit (a5ad905). Reworded to "Legacy directories for scopes where 
`<sources>` has no Java serve as implicit fallback (only if they match the 
default, e.g., inherited)".
