I don't understand why that's weird.
In Java you can't overload an append operator, so using a method is right. But for me it's weird that Appender doesn't use the D operator to _append_. I sometimes use "add" instead of "put" by mistake, forgetting the right method name, because I find it quite unnatural. If Appender needs a put, then I suggest to give it both "put" method and "~=" operator.
