Correct. I believe I saw non-zero "my"s with very low confidence (possibly as low as 0.)

What Keith reported corresponds very closely to my experience, although I didn't attempt controlled experiments. I just noticed that sometimes the camera locked on to a spot well away from the target, and noted that the confidence was zero (or so.)
