By Streamweaver:

This seems counterintuitive to me. You're not actually adding anything as the method name implies. You're formatting a string and returning it. Would it be better if this method appended an optional graph as it implies and the append method only added additional patterns? Rather than having append do both functions. Is there a need to only format a string?
