Error when I import PowerShellGet 3.0.23: New-Alias: The alias is not allowed, because an alias with the name 'fimo' already exists

Prerequisites

  • Write a descriptive title.
  • Make sure you are able to repro it on the latest version
  • Search the existing issues.

Steps to reproduce

I am running command:
Import-Module PowerShellGet -MinimumVersion 3.0.23 -Scope Global -Force

I see errors:
New-Alias: The alias is not allowed, because an alias with the name 'fimo' already exists.
New-Alias: The alias is not allowed, because an alias with the name 'inmo' already exists.
New-Alias: The alias is not allowed, because an alias with the name 'pumo' already exists.
New-Alias: The alias is not allowed, because an alias with the name 'upmo' already exists.

It looks like that conflict is happening because the same aliases exist in 2.2.5 and 3.0.23 versions of PowerShellGet.
Should I not install PowerShellGet 3.0.23 until PowerShell 7.4 will be released?

Expected behavior

Module is loaded without errors

Actual behavior

New-Alias: The alias is not allowed, because an alias with the name 'fimo' already exists.
New-Alias: The alias is not allowed, because an alias with the name 'inmo' already exists.
New-Alias: The alias is not allowed, because an alias with the name 'pumo' already exists.
New-Alias: The alias is not allowed, because an alias with the name 'upmo' already exists.

But module at the end is loaded

Error details

My machine has PowerShellGet 2.2.5 installed. 
Then I install new module Microsoft.PowerShell.PSResourceGet
Then I install PowerShellGet 3.0.23 for compatibility between PowerShellGet v2 and PSResourceGet modules. 
When I load PowerShellGet 3.0.23 I see the errors.  

When I run:  
Get-Alias -Name 'fimo'

Output: 
CommandType     Name                                               Version    Source
