   >IMO these two phrases contradict each other
   
   @fvaleri yes, the documentation is confusing. Instead it should have been
   - **No properties provided:** Default configurations will be used.
   - **Properties defined via file input only:** Default configurations will be 
ignored, and only the properties from the file will be used.
   - **Properties defined via environment variables only:** Default 
configurations will be ignored, and only the properties from environment 
variables will be used.
   - **Properties defined via both environment variables and file input:** 
Default configurations will be ignored. Properties from the file will be 
combined with those from environment variables, with environment variables 
taking precedence.
   
   > but I don't think this is what users expect.
   
   I agree that this may not provide the best user experience, but it helps 
eliminate confusion that could arise from default configurations when users 
provide their own configurations.
