I find the :while modifier non intuitive

user=> (for [x (range 1 10) y (range 1 10) :while (= y 2)] [x y])
()
user=> (for [x (range 1 10) y (range 1 10) :while (= x 2)] [x y])
([2 1] [2 2] [2 3] [2 4] [2 5] [2 6] [2 7] [2 8] [2 9])

My (false) intuition told me that both expressions would have been
evaluated to an empty sequence. Could someone explain the rationale
behind the :while modifier?
