Read it as « a bang or an empty list ». The bang is cast to an empty-list in a context where a list-method is defined but a bang-method isn't.
Hmm, I think it really the opposite, an empty list is cast as a bang. That's how its generally implemented anyway.
pd_defaultbang() casts bang to list when there is no bang-method.
pd_defaultlist() casts list to bang wheh there is no list-method and the list has 0 arguments (otherwise it casts to something else or tries to auto-unpack)
So, it's really both, but at least I didn't claim that there was only one converter.
