IIRC the main reason git aliases can't overwrite git commands is because

Given that I install such an extension, won't my script break?
Since that "script" will likely be an extension which will use the core
function instead of the UI command, it won't break.
Stuff which does command line parsing can naturally break when I change the
output. But it can also directly use the advanced features.
But then you're back with a single language, taking valuable freedom
away from the addon author. How many perl gurus have skipped writing
stuff for hg because it's a "python-or-bust" thing?
And please don't give me that rubbish of "but Python is obviously better
than C". Which one's true (if any) depends only on how you define "better".
