I thought the idea behind DOSEMU and FREEDOS was to provide
an open source and free environment which faithfully emulated
the MSDOS environment. Removing commands because they are
redundant will break existing systems, causing them to
fail. In this particular case, it is difficult to think of
a case where that would happen, since a batch file could
most likely be edited, and I don't know why a program would
use LOADHI, but it still seems to me to be a departure from
the original goal.

But LOADHI was never a command in MSDOS... (unless you also had QEMM).
It was only there because the built-in command.com of DOSEMU 1.0.2 did
not support LH and LOADHIGH.
