Nobody does that either.  😀

Yes, it's true that we have a lot more infrastructure that's geared
towards simple lists, and you can use those more easily with alists.
But mapcar etc aren't idea for alists, either.  We do have `on' in
`cl-loop'.  Adding some syntax to pcase for plists might be nice.
(I.e., for pcase-dolist etc.)
