When entering 's' instead of going south you save, 'w' does 'where' instead of 'west' etc.

That seems to violate the principle of least surprise for users.

I'm not sure if the order should just be switched, or if directions should get precedence if the command entered is 2 characters or less, or something else.

Hypothetically, lets say a mud creator wanted to change how this works without editing src/commands.js since that's considered part of the engine. Is that something that the plugin system could address, and how would that look?
