Dunno, lets me wonder: what are use cases of alias this on a public member? I 
mean, on a member that /must/ remain private. Then, it's just syntactic sugar, 
which is good, but why wrap it into an object?
In my mind, the typical use case is precisely a wrapper struct around something 
that, so-to-say, "naturally" ends up private.
