   ~The new name doesn't seem to reflect what the method actually does.~
   ~It doesn't necessarily subsume **one** checkpoint (or **any** checkpoints 
at all).~
   
   ~The correct name would be 
`addAndMaybeSubsumeOldestAndReturnTheLatestSubsumedIfAny` - which clearly 
indicates to me that the new functionality should be in a separate method.~
