Hm. I don't see that big a difference. Both commands seem to me to be 
telling me about individual files in the working tree and in the repo, 
and how their states are different between those two locations.

If that's the only difference, I would still vote to combine them. I 
can't think of why I wouldn't want a single command to tell me all that.

Same here. Just more variations on the same theme, so I would fold ls in 
with one or both of the other two.

I suspect it really boils down to how you feel about having lots of 
commands. Some folks, probably including most folks who used tla, tend 
to like lots of commands. Other folks, like me, prefer fewer.
