It strikes me as a bit > inconsistent. For example 'git remote' uses 'rm', and there exists 'git rm', 'git ls-files', 'git ls-remotes' etc. Granted, these are not abbreviations of other (also available) longer term. The fact that some commands use shell command names, and others use words, appears to be the inconsistency to me. However, renaming 'git stash list' to 'git stash ls' would break compatibility, so seemed too heavy to me.
