I've always agreed with the deprecation in the end, even complex 
numbers.
alias this was a relatively bad idea, even if an iconic feature.
I don't remember people from outside the community being 
impressed by alias this.
We have the right to backtrack on bad ideas instead of keeping 
them forever.
The __traits changed feature was aout fixing an incorrect 
behaviour. It took 10 min to fix.
The current deprecation system is very good.
