Comment (by ekmett):

 It is in the list of simplifications to consider for `Traversable`. If we
 can show it doesn't help measurably, it'd be a win for simplicity, and the
 `(bi)sequenceA` name that nobody likes can then eventually die in favor of
 `(bi)sequence`, whereas the other way there is no actual viable upgrade
 path that supports its removal.
