• the ONLY event these aliases will ever receive are those listed are those registered for via Alias Script, and most are inapplicable.
• Location aliases, like reference aliases, do not receive updates registered to the forms contained within the alias.
• Almost all interaction that is not handled in the quest alias data window is handled via external references to the contents of these alias
