Because there is absolutely no reason to deliberately break our installed base for a single version when it is quite arbitrary what we call this class. We know for a fact that calling it Date will be problematic. I also don't think a single alias is very hard to figure out, but like I said, just choosing a slightly more descriptive name for the class is probably a better solution all around.
Why not call it _DateTime or _Date? maintaining it in the future for BC will then be something like php::_Date, not too bad I don't think.
