No, it means that Maven won't add the dependency to a distribution.

However, I've got a question: These annotations have
@Retention(Runtime). (See
https://www.javadoc.io/doc/com.google.code.findbugs/jsr305/latest/javax/annotation/Nullable.html.)
Aren't we enforcing the presence of the respective jar at runtime?
