That's a very good point.

Of course, I wonder why he hasn't just decided to throw away a word:

    alias relative require_relative

If the seven letter thing is really a hard-and-fast requirement:

    alias relativ require_relative

That's as good as anyone is likely to get without inventing words from
scratch, in which case abcdefg is fine.  As for anything else, as has
been pointed out, this subject is substantively answered, and further
complaints from Ilias are just trolling.
