It's also certainly better from a readability standpoint to have `Remove-Item` rather than `rm` in a script.
Likewise, I would much rather type `ls -Al` rather than `ls --almost-all --long-listing` (N.B. --long-listing is not the long option for -l, -l has no long option, I just made up an appropriate name) when listing a directory but would probably appreciate the long form in a script.
I think just like we have long options and short options, it would be helpful to have long commands and short commands.
