The main question about "strongly typed type aliases", aka "newtype in Kotlin":
how would you actually use it,
and when you figure out how, how is that different from value types 🙂 ?

Probably they differ in declaration syntax. Though it's hard to compare given that none of above exists in kotlin. 😉
