I’ve done something similiar to this over the years for organization purposes and not having to change much between shells except add a path. You can also add cases that check your shell and do something slightly different if needed.

I actually use both in fish. I use aliases for some longer commands. For example I have
la
as an alias foreza -la --icons=auto --group-directories-first
because I don’t really want to see it every time I runla
. I use abbreviations for some shorter commands. For examplesystemctl
abbreviated tosys
andsystemctl --user
abbreviated tosysu
.
