They are, just not directly. Shows it won't match any old base specifier.

Yeah, as that change hasn't reached landed onto a release branch breaking code 
shouldn't be an issue, If it was I'd leave it in.

- `hasType` is very generic, whereas `hasClass` is specific to what a 
`CXXBaseSpecifier` supports.
- It makes the matchers marginally simpler.
  `hasDirectBase(hasType(cxxRecordDecl(hasName("Base"))))` vs 
`hasDirectBase(hasClass(hasName("Base")))`
- In the documentation it also specifies that `hasClass` takes a 
`Matcher<CXXRecordDecl>, making it more user friendly.
