That'd mean `copy-alist` would be aliased as `alist-copy`, do you think people would be strongly against this?

I don't know. I've never had an occasion to use this function. All I can say is that with fido-mode on (or with any of the packages like Ivy or Helm that provide fuzzy matching) its discoverability is not much of a problem.

In general, we have a generous amount of <verb>-<main thing>-etc function names, probably in the name of better sounding English. Renaming them all might be a difficult discussion. Or not, I'm not sure. If you want, you should probably open an improvement request just for this issue separately.
