Sorry for the delay, this slipped my mind.

| The boolean value of either expression is True. | ||
| This differs from ``os.path.exists("")``, which returns ``False``. |

Suggested change
| This differs from ``os.path.exists("")``, which returns ``False``. | |
| Because ``Path('')`` refers to the current directory, ``Path('').exists()`` | |
| returns ``True``, unlike :func:`os.path.exists`, which returns ``False`` | |
| for an empty string. |
Actually, I think this would be better placed in the .exists() documentation?

I added a shorter sentence to the 'exists' entry. Please review.
