I see, e.g., a number of ``` justification: "Allow adding a new method to the interface - old method is deprecated" ``` I think that is the way, isn't it? Deprecate the old abstract `newAppender` method (with 2 parameters), add a new abstract `newAppender` method (with 4 parameters), and justify it as ``` justification: "Allow adding a new method to the abstract class - old method is deprecated" ``` Otherwise, how would you ever change the API?
