Considering it was added in 2011, I guess its actually in use. I think when removing APIs/features there need to be compelling reasons to do so. The mere fact that addat has narrow use cases (is that even true?) is imho not enough.
It has never been in 7.8. I do agree that the naming is a bit ambiguous (it overwrites and extends). Grubba added it, maybe he can explain what he used/uses it for?
