I’m an SRE and we actively try promote a blameless culture as such industry tooling should also follow suit imo. Progressively phasing this term out with a better alias would be great.

I believe there's already an alias for it, git annotate, if you'd prefer
to use that.  The name "blame" came in with CVS, with the synonym
"annotate", so it's well understood, but you can use whichever alias you
prefer.

I do think there may some differences in the defaults between git
annotate and git blame, but if someone wanted to send in a patch for an
option to make annotate produce identical output to blame, then I think
it could be a full replacement.
