1. In a directory, create an empty file .dir-locals.el
2. Open any file in that directory to get this error:

    Error reading dir-locals: (end-of-file)

Why do you need to do that?

Yes, what's wrong with that?

Stop a sub-directory from inheriting local settings from its parent.

In my case, the parent has local settings for general cases and the
sub-directory is an exception and should not inherit those settings.

I can work around this bug by inserting a useless sexp in the file but
this stops one from quickly 'M-! touch .dir-locals.el' and be done with
it.

I hope this is a good use case.

Seeing this error every time one opens a file in that directory or its
sub-directories is annoying.

OK. You could put a (unless (zerop (buffer-size)) ...) in
dir-locals-read-from-file.
