I'm against any change. It makes perfect sense the way it is now. And it's great for those who use both Linux and Unix because most commands are interoperable between the two platforms. And beyond that, it's fast as a result of keeping commands short and easy to remember.
I haven't met a newbie yet that is even interested in learning how to interact with the command-line. They all seem to be some new breed migrating from Windows and expecting *nix to operate in a 1:1 manner. And for those who do want to learn it, do exactly that--learn it. It just takes time. Be patient.
I think there's more important things to focus on regarding Linux development.
