As a regular Windows, Linux (via WSL), and macOS user, I'm not confused by the curl/wget alias in Powershell, and I appreciate it. I understand from context that it's not actually curl and has different options. It's much easier than remembering whatever Invoke-HyperText-Transfer-Protocol-Request -Url incantation that's native to Powershell.
