It actually cannot. opt-title is set via `org-export-get-alt-title', which always returns something. So, I have no problem with the logic. Although the variable name now appears confusing to me, as a reader of the code. Not a big deal. So, you can ignore this comment of mine. -- Ihor Radchenko // yantar92, Org mode maintainer, Learn more about Org mode at <https://orgmode.org/>.
