Because the implementation is too ugly.
The damage to the more generic config parser codepath is a real
downside and the benefit from the little "feature" does not seem to
justify it.
I would however can imagine an alternative implementation which
might be more palatable. It may go like this:
[alias "lgF"]
command = "log --oneline --boundary --first-parent"
help = "show the first parent chain, one line per commit"
completion = log
so that not just alias.c code can take notice of alias.lgF.command
to expand it, but we can later extend it to help "git help lgF" and
bash/zsh completion (i.e. they would learn "lgF parameter would
complete in a way similar to 'log'" from alias.lgF.completion).
