Why don't we put stuff after add?

[FuRuF-11]

After learned Pixi, I feel really confuse about the command

pixi workspace environment add

I wonder why don't we just use:

pixi add environment env_name or pixi add -e env_name .

Because put so many stuff before add seems very counter-intuitive.

It would be much neater if we could put all of this stuff behind the add command.

Hi @FuRuF-11, pixi add is specifically for adding dependencies to your workspace. pixi workspace on the other hand is for modifying your workspace configuration, without adding new dependencies.

I think it is desirable to keep these two semantically different things under separate subcommands. Does that make sense?
