Not saying it's correct, just stating the fact that function name is confusing and potentially problematic because it doesn't do what it states it does.Aye, there's plenty that isn't perfect, especially in old APIs. None the less, the Qt project makes strong backward-compatibility promises; part of the price of that is that we don't lightly change APIs, even when they aren't ideally named.
Probably part of the confusion is the fact that it's called "addDays", not "daysAdded" or something like that. In Qt, APIs that use the present imperative usually modify the object itself, while the ones in the past simple return a new modified object (e.g. QString::trimmed).
