If we instead had (require racket/set/aliases), then I could use non-ASCII stuff without the big footprint.
Oh, I understand now. Yes, "<module>/aliases" modules seem reasonable to me, if there is some good reason that the aliases can't just be defined in the respective "<module>".
If do a "(require racket/set)", I really don't mind if the standard set symbols are also included as aliases in the module, so long as there are corresponding 7-bit ASCII names that I can use instead. I'd think they'd take up relatively negligible resources, and they're not likely to collide with any other uses for the symbols. In the rare situation they do collide, one can do a renaming import or selective import.
