Y'all's Tab keycaps must be worn
through.

As a rest from things before Unix, we also have something the Unixen
don't do, we have a minimum length parser. As seen in amon others OpenVMS.

Syntax becomes: 

$ sh int te 0/0/0/1 tran det

(for "show interface TenGigabitEthernet 0/0/0/1 transceiver details")

You don't need to tab.
