How so?
The ability to create your own functions, your own classes, your own API, etc.
is the foundation of being able to build software.  You need to be able to
create your own functions, classes, etc. in order to build software
effectively.

Also, in this case, do you really need to have any consistency between the Synchronet console object and the web console object?  What benefit would that serve?

Also I rarely see them referred to as "commands".
