Anton,

what does expression "withConsistency" mean? From user's standpoint it
means that all operations performed without this proxy are not
consistent. It means also that at least method name is bad.

Are there any guarantees that withConsistency proxy will not contain
bugs that will lead to inconsistent write after inconsistency was
found? I think there are no such guarantees. Bugs still are possible.
So I always must use withConsistency proxy because I doesn't have
other choice - all ways are unreliable and withConsistency just sounds
better.

Eventually we will have two different ways for working with cache
values with different bugs set. What is the profit?
