   * methods ensure that the {@code WrappedCollection} and map remain consistent.

   * <p>A subcollection, such as a sublist, contains some of the values for a given key. Its
   * ancestor field points to the full wrapped collection with all values for the key. The

   * the corresponding methods of the full wrapped collection.
