@bagder I know that there are some people at Microsoft who care about open source, fairness, mutual support etc.
I wonder what those people think, e. g., @shanselman, @davidfowl.
Sometimes big enterprises get caught up in business rules and compatibility requirements and forget about common sense and fair interactions between humans but there are always people in there who can see through all this and can escalate things in there.
As curl users we can probably agree that the alias is pointless.

@brar @bagder The alias is also gone, and curl has shipped by default in Windows since Dec of 2017.

@brar @bagder no it’s not a perfect solution but it’s better. I have been - and will continue to - push for the right thing from the inside

@shanselman
It's only gone if users manually update their powershell version, so the majority of people still have it.

@paul @shanselman It’s likely there are a number of customers who have built on that functionality and it would break things to remove it. I agree it shouldn’t have been aliased by default in the first place in the classic PowerShell.
