I think that is my fault; it was a patch I submitted way back at the
beginning of last year. But you're right, $(undefined) shouldn't select the document, only $() with no arguments at all should. Want to file a ticket on
it?

The offending code is at the beginning of jQuery.fn.prototype:

    // Make sure that a selection was provided
    selector = selector || document;

That really should be:

    // Select document object for $()
    if( ! arguments.length ) selector = document;

From: Jake

I am having a problem with jQuery (2.1.1).

I have a set of variables defined and depending on
circumstances some may be undefined.

A simple stupid example:
    var element_id;
    var the_element = jQuery(element);
   the_element.click(function () { alert('Hello World'); });

The result of this is that any click anywhere produces the
"Hello World" alert box.  The expected behavior was that no
click event would be bound since element_id was undefined and
so no matching element could be found.  Not binding document.click.

I suppose jQuery behaves this way is so calling jQuery()
without any parameters returns "document" and you can work on
it in the short concise jQuery way.

But doesn't this seem like incorrect behavior?
