Yes, I don't see any advantage in having this overload. I would also change
`add(long value)` and `add(int value)` into `add(Long value)` and `add(Integer
value)` for consistency (I actually prefer primitive types, too; however, for
this case class types seems to be more appropriate because the inherited
methods use `Double` as parameter and as return type in `getLocalValue()`).
But you should wait for @StephanEwen feedback before chancing anything. I
am new to accumulators...
