Interesting.
Are you saying the semantics of JPMS depends on the implementation
of one or more methods in java.lang.module.Configuration and friends?
Are all mentions of JPMS inside JLS intended as references into JDK API?
How are compiler engineers expected to use this information?
JPMS semantics (notably, dependency resolution) are defined by the API
specification (not the implementation) of java.lang.module.Configuration
and friends. JLS references to JPMS are references to this Java SE API.
