 +==== Real World Usage Scenarios ====
 +
 +1. PHPUnit's Mocking
 +
 +<code php>
 +
 +use MyVendor\SomeComponent\TargetSubNs;
 +
 +// inside a test case
 +$this->getMock(TargetSubNs\Foo::class);
 +// as opposed to
 +$this->getMock('MyVendor\SomeComponent\TargetSubNs\Foo');
 +</code>
 +
 +2. Doctrine
 +
 +<code php>
 +
 +use MyVendor\SomeComponent\TargetEntityNs as Entity;
 +
 +// inside a test case
 +$entityManager->find(Entity\User::class, 5);
 +// as opposed to
 +$entityManager->find('MyVendor\SomeComponent\TargetEntityNs\User', 5);
 +
 +</code>
 +
 +3. Any Real (auto-wiring || auto-instantiating) Dependency Injection Container
 +
 +<code php>
 +
 +use MyVendor\SomeComponent\TargetNs as T;
 +
 +// inside a test case
 +$dic->newInstance(T\Foo::class);
 +// as opposed to
 +$dic->newInstance('MyVendor\SomeComponent\TargetEntityNs\Foo');
 +
 +</code>
 +
 +4. General PHP Usage:
 +
 +<code php>
 +
 +use MyVendor\SomeComponent\TargetNs as T;
 +
 +// reflection
 +$r = new ReflectionClass(T\Foo::class); // instead of new ReflectionClass('MyVendor\SomeComponent\TargetNs\Foo');
 +
 +// class_exists, also applies to any php function that takes a class name (is_subclass_of, get_class_methods, etc)
 +if (class_exists(T\Foo::class, true)) {} // instead of class_exists('MyVendor\SomeComponent\TargetNs\Foo')
 +
 +</code>
