The current JavaDoc is not wrong :-) (same in other places). I think what you propose may not add much clarity (given the complexities of reasoning about parallelism). We could add something after "but is not constrained to execute sequentially." e.g. " Parallel execution may result in intermediate results computed as if by the code above. Such results are combined using the combining function to produce the final result." " ------------- PR: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/10469
