Did anyone suggest "distinct type alias"?

I would just like to mention that "distinguished" seems to be more often associated with notability and excellence than "distinct", which is usually more neutral towards the quality of what it describes.

Unless we want to say that these types are nobler than their counterparts, "distinguished" seems worse than "distinct".
