Since we'll never bind in `null` values all these `prefix == null` are likely 
redundant unless we expose them to users. Which we probably shouldn't. It's a 
good thing this PR actually removes some shared secrets rather than adding new

All `constants` are non-null (see `parseRecipe`)
Suggestion:

        } else if (paramCount == 2 && constants[1].isEmpty()) {
