Hi team, I came across your code, and I would love to understand why you use hashes to alias your imports:

Hi! That's an artifact of the generation tooling we use, Kiota. You'd have to ask over there to be sure. My guess is that they do it because hashes are easy to machine-generate in a way that guarantees collision avoidance, which isn't always true for human-readable names.
