Yum/dnf is a total turd (rinky dink script, actually), IMO, but that feature is an absolute godsend since many times package names don't include the command names, and that's what folks memorize.
[resend]Are you sure? "pkg query" is very powerful. Check "pkg alias"; one prebuilt query may already exist. I don't know yum so I don't know what "whatprovides" does, but I would be very surprised if pkg(8) doesn't do an equivalent.
