Not really, as everything is given an unreadable alias anyway, and many are given multiple aliases: Copy-Item -> copy,cp,cpi. So there are just more names to learn.

You don't have to use the aliases though, and they don't tab complete (only the full name does)

Personally, I never use them. I saw them more as a help for people coming over from bash.

You do have to use them unless you work alone. I regularly see PS1 files that use the various aliases, as well as the fully-named commands.
