Comment (by peterwilsoncc):

 Replying to [comment:6 costdev]:
 > Question is, does "empty" refer to `empty( $terms ) === true`, or does
 it refer to `null`, `''`, and `array()`?

 I'm not sure what ''was'' meant back when when the docblock was written,
 but I think it's a reasonable interpretation that it means `empty( $terms
 ) === true`.

 I do think that's how it has been interpreted in the official
 documentation that Colin refers to.
