Yii2: [BaseObject] why className static method deprecated?

[ziaratban]

in doc

Deprecated since 2.0.14. On PHP >=5.5, use ::class instead.

i thinks ::class is not good response for some request.

for example ::class can not be used in dynamic class.

$myDynamicObject = new \yii\helpers\Html;
echo $myDynamicObject::Class; #PHP Compile Error > Cannot use ::class with dynamic class name

or

$myObjects = [new class1,new class2,new classN];
#very codes is here
foreach($myObjects as $obj)
    echo $myDynamicObject::Class; #PHP Compile Error > Cannot use ::class with dynamic class name

Why do you need to?
The $myDynamicClass variable already has the class name in it.

I'm don't understand - why get the className string from the className string.
Show your usage case please.

when you call \yii\base\BaseObject::className(), the composer will load the class file.
\yii\base\BaseObject::class only return the a class name string "yii\base\BaseObject".
and, use XXX::class in code / config file is better for IDE like PHPStorm understand it.
