 If `separator` is an empty string (`""`), `str` is converted to an array of each of its UTF-16 "characters", without empty strings on either ends of the resulting string.
 
-> **Note:** `"".split("")` is therefore the only way to produce an empty array when a string is passed as `separator`.

 > **Warning:** When the empty string (`""`) is used as a separator, the string is **not** split by _user-perceived characters_ ([grapheme clusters](https://unicode.org/reports/tr29/#Grapheme_Cluster_Boundaries)) or unicode characters (code points), but by UTF-16 code units. This destroys [surrogate pairs](https://unicode.org/faq/utf_bom.html#utf16-2).
