Why we need this, why you can't do it with "requires" is because this is for modules which you do not depend on. Often they depend on you. MooseX::Blah depends on Moose, so Moose declares conflict with versions of MooseX::Blah it breaks.
This requires Moose maintainers to know about all the things their releases break. Have you considered reversing the directionality so MooseX::Blah knows about the things which break it? That seems like a more likely scenario to me, and lets the right maintainer control the "conflicts" relationship.
