Would you care to elaborate? Moreover, if that's the only reason then why not improve it rather than getting rid of it?

There are several types of typedefs that need to be available: parallel,
opaque, supertype and subtype.

I see. So the built-in typedef is closest in semantics to subtype, but leaves bits to be desired.
