Strange behaviour report method exception class

[chris-rs]

When writing custom Exceptions with a render & report method (see https://laravel.com/docs/8.x/errors#renderable-exceptions).
I do not understand the report method.
According to the documentation the method looks like this:

/**
 * Report the exception.
 *
 * @return bool|null
 */
public function report()
{
    // Determine if the exception needs custom reporting...

    return false;
}

This method is called from the Illuminate\Foundation\Exceptions\Handler class on the following line:

framework/src/Illuminate/Foundation/Exceptions/Handler.php

Lines 228 to 230 in 36dfae9

	if ($this->container->call($reportCallable) !== false) {
	return;
	}

So when the report method returns NOT false the exception will not be reported. Hence return void in the Handler class.
This does not seem to match with the report method docblock above. I would expect if the report method returns false it will not be reported (no log entry) but the Handler class does the opposite.
Anyone who does understand this behaviour?
