The detail is absent (i.e. the optional is empty) 2. The detail is a blank 3. The detail is non-blank If we care about a blank detail (i.e. an error description that consists only of whitespace), then why treat it like an absent detail and omit it from the documentation? If we don't care about a blank detail, then why wrap it in an `Optional` when a blank string would do? ------------- PR: https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk/pull/6579
