Description
It may be useful to have an alias for reference_data_path that is more descriptive for the model-vs-model case. e3sm_diags.py would just convert it to the existing parameter.
See discussion on #404.

Research direction
Start with the discussion on #404, then inspect e3sm_diags.py and the existing reference_data_path handling. Define the more descriptive model-vs-model alias and ensure e3sm_diags.py converts it to the existing parameter; the work is done when the alias is accepted without changing current reference_data_path behavior.
