Why is it forbidden to call a superclass method from a subclass function of a different a name?

I tried the thing in the screenshot below, i.e, to call the super-class method getThis() within the sub-class method someFunc(). It is forbidden, as the Code Analyzer message indicates. But why? Why should it matter that they are of the same name.

Hi Matt,
In order to call a superclass method from a subclass's method, we must create a method in subclass with the same name as the method present in the super class.
Kindly go through the following document: Link
If you are using different name of the method, then you don't need to mention "@myclass" while calling the superclass method.
classdef mysubclass<myclass
methods
% This function has different name, so you don't have to mention
% @myclass here
function someFunc(obj)
obj.getThis();
end
% When we use same name, then we have to mention @myclass
function getThis(obj)
obj.getThis@myclass();
end
end
end

Interesting question. Yes, the syntax seems unambiguous. Maybe the restriction simplifies implementing the OO framework, since it means that each subclass function only needs to keep track of at most one over-ridden function from the superclass, rather than having to potentially keep track of all of them.
Anyone know whether this would be allowed in other languages that support OO?
