That’s not what I’m asking, though. I’m asking where in the documentation it specifies that the assembler should accept aliases of these forms.

I have the same question about a number of the other proposed patches of this nature. If the docs say we should support them, then I’m all for it. If they don’t, I’m very hesitant to do so. I don’t like adding undocumented extensions to the assembler syntax.
