A FixedSizeCollection is a collection that may be mutated, but cannot grow or shrink in size. It is up to the underlying implementation to decide which mutations are allowable.

This method allows fixed size collections the ability to add elements to their existing elements. A new instance of MutableCollection is returned containing the elements of the original collection with the new element added. Implementations will return a new FixedSizeCollection where possible. In order to use this method properly with mutable and fixed size collections the following approach must be taken:
MutableCollection<String> list;
list = list.with("1");
list = list.with("2");
return list;
