> For some (very) erroneous code, the javac's parser may create an `ErroneousTree`, which contains an empty `ModifiersTree`. The empty `ModifiersTree` will not have the position, set but the `ModifiersTree`'s position will be used as the start position of the `ErroneousTree`, leading to start position `-1`. The proposal is to fall back on the the `ErroneousTree`'s `pos` when the nested tree does not have any position set.
