Description
The "add" name is confusing. Does it add to the original element list? Does it add it as a children?
$(this).and(that).doSomething(); would be more readable.

Ugh. What about .andSelf()? Wasn't that deprecated and aliased to .addBack() for clarity?
I'm not asking this for myself, but for the community. I already know how .add() works
The API has been there for years and nobody has been confused about it. We couldn't *rename* it without breaking code so the only thing we could do is add an alias. If that's the case, it can be done in your code.
