The more I think about it, the clearer is that the first line of the
Javadoc is contrary to the other lines:

So all read write modes will work, just if it's long or double then it
won't work for get and for set access mode. (Or is getAndSet meant? But
it's not called so, it's "get and set", so two access modes, or what?)
Then the following lines state that even harder access modes will work
also for long and double.
So I think this should be labeled as "getAndSet" or at least
"get-and-set" access mode. Currently it's very confusing.
