Yep, after does sound confusing. I prefer from.

I think we should use `from` instead of `after`, which is more clear IMO. It also feels like `after` and `from` (in shorthand) do different things, and if we use `form`, it will also be reasonable to assume that the `.package(url:from:)` is a shorthand form.
