As pointed out on Slack, this error message is not very nice:

julia> *()
ERROR: MethodError: no method matching LinearAlgebra.Rotation(::Vector{Any})

Closest candidates are:
  LinearAlgebra.Rotation(::Array{LinearAlgebra.Givens{T}, 1}) where T
   @ LinearAlgebra ~/.julia/juliaup/julia-1.9.1+0.x64.linux.gnu/share/julia/stdlib/v1.9/LinearAlgebra/src/givens.jl:44

Stacktrace:
 [1] *()
   @ LinearAlgebra ~/.julia/juliaup/julia-1.9.1+0.x64.linux.gnu/share/julia/stdlib/v1.9/LinearAlgebra/src/givens.jl:420
 [2] top-level scope
   @ REPL[1]:1

I hope my PR fixes it, but I don't know what new error might pop up.

Just built Julia to check: the new error with my fix is the one we want

julia> *()
ERROR: MethodError: no method matching *()

Closest candidates are:
  *(::Bool, ::Complex{Bool})
   @ Base complex.jl:309
  *(::Bool, ::Bool)
   @ Base bool.jl:168
  *(::Bool, ::AbstractIrrational)
   @ Base irrationals.jl:163
  ...

Could potentially add a test like @test isempty(methods(*, ()))

Done, I did it for + too
