Yeah but a problem with having too many things aliased is that you eventually forget the underlying commands and when you’re on a terminal that doesn’t have your alias you can’t do anything anymore.
Picard is a guy that gets around the galaxy and probably learned the menu on replicators when he was young. And it’s possible that there’s some weird alien food that sounds like hot earl grey tea. Some older replicators are probably still in operation on some planets, and he’s found that the order of “Tea. Earl Grey. Hot.” is the most reliable command that works on nearly all replicators. Given how much gets around he got used to always saying it that way so even when he’s in his ready room, he still says it that way without even thinking about it.
