One fundamental things to check when you do overloading is that the two overloaded method should have the exact same semantics, clearly Collection.addAll(Collection) and Collection.addAll(Stream) have different semantics with respect to the order at least also addAll(Stream) doesn't return if the collection was mutated.

I have not idea what name to use but not addAll.
