Comment (by SergeyBiryukov):

 > For better inheritance parent and child-themes can use the new
 `get_theme_direcotry( $file )` function. It looks up if the required file
 is given in the child-theme. If so, then this one will be returned.
 Otherwise it gives you the desired path pointing to the parent-theme.

 How is that different from
