Definitely not. mv is the actual command name, and move is only an alias, and that's the way it should stay. > b) Use only dash separated command names (for commands > which consist of more words or concatenated names, > add aliases where a corresponding counterpart is > missing).

No, the point of hidden aliases is that it doesn't add extra burden to the documentation. e.g. I didn't know of the move alias, and that was great.
