Description
Some options: undefined, null, empty string "" (if multiple options are accepted, then one will likely still need to be privileged as canonical)
Note that accepting undefined has big implications for TC39 Intl Unit Protocol, and that empty string has implications for TypeScript.
Other possibly related issues: #97, #78
