We probably should have proper guidelines for aliases. IMO, there should only

around. Coding guidelines should "cherry-pick" (and possibly 
configure/harden/make more strict) base checks. So in that sense yes, it would 
make sense to move the check to bugprone and alias to cppcoreguidelines. But I 
think that's a separate issue.

Absolutely, I'm not arguing against that, I'm just saying that the _default_ 
choice should be what the guidelines say.

I still don't understand what problem we are trying to achieve, however. My 
impression from the PR (please correct me if I'm wrong) is that we want to 
ignore integer narrowing conversions in C++20, simply because they are 
well-defined. 

I believe a lot of people (myself included) will disagree with that - like I 
wrote above, the problem still remains that data is lost, which is exactly what 
this check is preventing. If one wants to ignore these warnings, one can 
disable the check or disable warnings on integer conversions which the existing 
option. Why is that not sufficient?
