Hm. With respect, this one I don't really agree with. It's just a
polymorphism of the regular prepare() method. Since its signature differs from
the "regular" prepare() method, system code will never call it. It is
documented, at javadoc level, as being only for use in unit testing, which is
by definition code-level. Those who aren't willing to look at code shouldn't
be using it, and indeed will have a difficult time finding it at all. I'd
rather let the polymorphism be evident.
I will, however, add further comment that this is "used only for unit
testing, with injection of a FakeClock for mocking passage of time in a
controlled way, to test queue timeout behavior in the WriterComponent." Would
that be okay?
