It currently says:
...matches are returned in the order found. If one or more groups are present in the pattern, return a list of groups...
I'm not quite sure how it could be clearer. Maybe "Alternatively" at the start of the second sentence?
regexr does the same thing, as far as I can see. Match is 'cool', group 1 is empty. Matches are not the same as groups.
