pet peeve: the help text for `ln` (for making symlinks and such) describes the two file path parameters as `source_file` and `target_file`, rather than `link_path` and `existing_file`.

every single time I go to use it, I have to expend cognitive effort trying to figure out which way around it's supposed to be.

@gsuberland it is the same order as cp and mv: src dst

At least that helps me remember it.
