Research direction
Start by locating the command parser and the existing --version, -h, and --help alias handling. Compare the proposed aliases with the implemented and rejected lists, and confirm the install/purchase dependency before changing those entries. Done means the accepted aliases work consistently without enabling the rejected ones, with parser tests covering the mappings.
