I wholeheartedly agree that it's the same, but I fundamentally disagree about it being a "problem", or at least, one worth caring about. I don't honestly believe that typing out the extra 35 characters that are filled in by the helper function I gave here would solve anything that comes close to the convenience of not needing to memorize them.

1. Develop the instinct of "I probably have a shell function for that, if it isn't already obvious; and if I don't, I need to fix that"

2. Give your shell functions a common prefix, and/or big-endian naming convention (e.g. things that help you with git start with `@git-`)

3. Tab completion is your friend.
