I just find it somewhat un-regular that the > commands for info all start with 'I', hence my desire to fix it. It may be irregular, but it's there for a very long time, and AFAIR no one complained about that. So I see no reason to put in Emacs something that is your personal preference. (E.g., I find function names like foo->bar also irregular -- this is Lisp, not C -- but that's just my personal stylistic preference, so I keep it to myself.)
