How is any Linux feature possibly helping me with running an older,

It won't.
If FreeDOS were to learn the same alternative way of not using the
"tail" (~1, ~2 and so on) on short file names, at least were possible,
that *could* help a little...
Sorry, but DOS uses a 8.3 naming convention, not 6.3. So I don't see how
this could possibly "help". It would actually make no f'ing difference,
you lose two (possibly distinguishing) characters of the filename...
