I don't see that decorating infrequently-used statements with bizarre
options that duplicate the functionality of other commands is "making it
easy". Apparently your definition of "easy" depends entirely on
keystrokes and not at all on memory/cognitive burden.
IMHO a utility command should do one easily-explained thing. The fewer
options the better.
