"Result class having getStats() and addResults(Stats) makes little sense..."

"...the naming is just weird. You have a getStats() getter and an addResults(Stats) setter???"

"...Especially in the Result class and addResult() is plain misleading..."

This issue is about deprecating addResults and replacing it with addStats in its place.

The getStats/addResult is recent. It came in with:

RegionLoadStats don't belong in Result if you ask me but better in the enveloping on invocations... but that is another issue.
