Added and [replaced with] something
I added a bunch of B. In some cases, B replaced A. In other words:
I added B, and replaced with B.
How can I write that more succinctly?
Added and replaced B
The above is not correct, because it implies B was replaced with something else.
Added and replaced with B
The above is ambiguous, as it could be interpreted as "Added with B, and replaced with B". "Added with B" is not something I did.
Is there a single word I could use instead of "replace with"? Is there another way to formulate the sentence without repeating B or adding A?
Edit: More verbosely:
I added MyNamespace.MyInterfaceFunction to classes which did not already have a similar function, and replaced the similar functions with MyNamespace.MyInterfaceFunction in those that did.
Solution 1:
I would move away from the verb replaced, since it results in an ambiguous interpretation.
Instead, use something synonymous but also more explicit in terms of a simple sentence construction:
I added and substituted B.
Although really, as a single sentence that describes everything, it should be a bit longer:
I added and, in some cases, substituted B.
