Oh no, I sent out a reply without my comments added.
That was my first attempt post from this queer browser
(w3m) and didn't know how to edit the text box.  Sorry.

Wow, that's a good source of information.  Thank you!

Unfortunately the problem of aliasing "cp -i" isn't mentioned
in the EshellAlias section.  There was a page unrelated
to alias that talks about Lisp variables which make cp, mv, etc.
ask before overwriting.  This is one solution as long as
concerning those commands.
