I don't think that it's explicitly spelled out anywhere; but the
reason is fairly straightforward: exclude and alias

Is there syntactic sugar for aliasing the conflicting method? Eg.
something like

There needs to be something more than sugar: making a new class or

Arising out of "Freezing Roles" is a related question.
Suppose I download a module from CPAN with a role I want to use, but it
introduces a method that I want that is in conflict with an existing
method (say one taken from another CPAN module).
How should the method be aliased to prevent it f
