In basics this proposal should do not impact 'type system', but still it
allow to introduce 'This' type.

Because 'this' is not a type, just like void.

And it's very strict, while 'This' can be:
reduced while inheritance (and prevented from stocking)
bounded: This extend OutputStream super … (this would cause activation on
described level)
used in Generics.
