Why is `:f` abbrev of `:file` and not of (much more useful) `:find`?

Hi,
maybe someone will know the answer?

Recently I switched from CtrlP to native `:find *file*` command for jumping to a file in a project.
I'm not looking back, vim's native `:find` is great, and a fantastic complement to `:buffer` (well they complement each other).

Now to the question:
why is the `:f` an abbreviation to `:file`? Why not `:f` -> `:find`?
`:file` command does not seem that useful, at least not as useful as `:find` in everyday work. And Ctrl-G does the same thing as `:file`!
I solved this in my vimrc with `cab f find` - but I'm more interested in the root cause of this.

Do you think Bram would be open to changing the `:f` vim default? (although I have a feeling I would not be the first one to ask)
