What I suggest for this particular issue is this: first be liberal
while staying consistent (thus allowing "elisp" as Troy suggest),
then be strict when a major release is issued (thus removing aliases
that are problematic, not just "elisp" but others.)

WDYT?  Troy, would you be able to prepare a patch for this?
