This API is there since about a decade. In Smalltalk the selector would have been allSubclasses. However, in Moose, we typically use all for contained elements. This is why it's not called allSubclasses. Another possibility would be to call it deepSubclasses. But, of course, everything is subject to change.

to me it looks like too much thinking and this kind of API sucks.

I can understand

subclassHierarchyDepth
because it is about hierarchy but no subclasses.
