    Yeah, I'm ok with this fix.  I shouldn't have just green-lit the inherited 
javadoc suggested by the IDE.
    
    Also, I think we probably *should* do the following during builds:
    * generate javadoc
    * generate the site-book
    
    My only concern is that we already have hefty build times, but maybe that's 
not a good enough reason to avoid these kinds of errors.
    
    Anyway, +1 by inspection.

> {{@apiNote}} doesn't work by default when generating Javadocs.  Apparently, 
> it's intended to be language level information rather than a widely adopted 
> tag.
> This only shows up in ReaderSpliterator, in docs copied directly from the 
> language construct.  Given that all these methods are {{@Override}}, it seems 
> reasonable to just drop the docs entirely, given that they inherit anyway.
> If desired, we could explicitly inherit the parent docs.
> Finally, we could enable the use of {{@apiNote}}, but given the intended 
> usage and our copied use, I'm inclined to just change our code directly.
