Difference between EventEmitter.next() and EventEmitter.emit() in Angular 2

In the latest version(Ng9), the source code of event_emitter.ts goes as following:

export class EventEmitter<T extends any> extends Subject<T> {
  /**
   * Emits an event containing a given value.
   * @param value The value to emit.
   */
  emit(value?: T) { super.next(value); }
}

EventEmitter extends from parent class Subject. And emit method call super.next() as you may expected.

They do the same. emit() is the current version, next() is deprecated.
