I can see that it makes sense since no variables feels like the same as all variables are empty. The goal is to print out the result of evaluating the pattern if and only if all variables in the pattern are not empty. The simplest use case is to print [ ]'s around marker names but print nothing if there are no markers. There is no point in using %notEmpty if there is no variables inside of a %notEmpty. So this edge case makes sense as it is (to me). Do you see it otherwise?
