I do use aliases, though differently too. For example, i use multiple distros. Instead of "uh, what was the xbps command to find what package contains this file?" i just have it automatically set to a bunch of aliases in a case switch based on package manager. Another one; some tools that follow XDG only optionally via parameter.
