There were introduced for the need of anonymous access type to  
subprograms, but 1) were applied to objects in the while 2) there were  
probably alternatives (as the mentioned rational recognized). So, may be  
you are right. I confess I don't really enjoy anonymous access type too.

Except that if I'm not wrong, anonymous access type were also introduced  
for the need of some parts of I/O packages. Someone can tell more ?
