Also, my understanding is that if you're suggesting a single alias/implication, using the web forms for alias and implication creation gives jhx2154 a link to click to create them rather than having to retype them manually.

Where does the link appear? Or does it appear only to jhx?

I, too, type out all my requests by hand. Compare the web form with the actual syntax:

Aliasing weapons -> weapon.

create alias weapons -> weapon

Since their details are so different, with even a futile dot at the end of the web form version, my natural conclusion is that making requests with the form just unnecessarily gives a little more work to jhx.

(But I may be wrong. As an alternative theory, maybe having the form really is helpful because all the requests follow basically the same pattern, even if jhx has to convert them all to the actual syntax.)
