Probably a few times a day? One nice thing about the alias is that it expands and takes more parameters if you want, like
It's also super quick to set up an alias, so I don't see why not.

I used to have a lot of git aliases but then I became dependent on those and forgot the actual git commands that were lying underneath. So whenever I went to a new system I'd have to port my dotfiles or look up the git docs for what the commands were. If a colleague asked me "how do I do X" I had no clue and had to look in my bashrc. Nowadays I only add them if I do it many many times per day. Like "git commit -a -m" for example. I try to keep things as close to stock as I can
This type of alias seems on the fence for me, if was like 10x a day I'd definitely be on board but a few times a day is a gray area
