> The empty list will make {{ConsumerRecords#isEmpty}} return false, and {{partitions()}} will include a partition with no records. I have checked that both classic and async consumers follow the rule. [https://github.com/apache/kafka/pull/23532] will fix the issue in share consumer.
> I was thinking of modifying {{{}isEmpty{}}}, but it may introduce an unexpected breaking change, and the constructor is public so interceptors can build {{ConsumerRecords}} too. That is to say ... let's update the docs instead 🙂
