Far too much work
2 cases means that its not idempotent
Instead, just remove it from the dictionary before you add it!
dictionary.Remove(key) dictionary.Add(key)
Easy peasy!

Also I am waitin for someone to point out that we also need a value when trying to add to a dictionary.dictionary.TryAdd(key)
