"lsmod" is not so old and is not called lsmod-cli, its name reflet what it does
(list the modules). Is "lsmod" ISO, IEEE or POSIX standardized?
The "rename" command present in the Fedora is called "rename", not
"yet-another-renamer", the rename command is not so old nor standardized. In
fact the "rename" found in other distribution is from a different package with
another interface. 
Instead the trash-cli package will be present soon in at least two distribution
(Fedora and Ubuntu) with the same command names. 

Another not so old example are "lspci" that list the PCI devices.

In my opinion each command name should reflect what the command does.

There is not a "trash" *application* there is a package named "trash-cli" that
provides four commands (implemented as executables):
 - trash (that trashes files)
 - list-trash (that list the trashed files)
 - empty-trash (that empty the trashcan(s))
 - restore-trash (that restore a trashed file)

You think that I should rename all adding -cli?

The Freedesktop Trash Specification are followed by KDE, soon by GNOME, and by
other Desktop Enviroment. 
I think is enough a standard that name the command line interface commands to
interact with it without adding some strange suffix.
