Alias Twin Towers and World Trade Center

BUR #11574 has been rejected.

create alias twin_towers -> world_trade_center

The twin towers are the world trade center. While it seems redundant, there may yet come depictions of the present world trade center.

I'm a fool, one_world_trade_center is a preexisting tag. Unfortunately there aren't enough posts to alias/imply it either.

The construction of twin towers isn't unique to the WTC's Twin Towers though (See wikipedia for other examples). I think it would be reasonable to assume that we could end up with images of twin towers that were not specifically the WTC's Twin Towers.

If we were being pedantic, the World Trade Center was a complex of seven buildings, only two of them being twin towers. Of course they were the most important ones, and often what you'd think of when you heard about the WTC, so using them as a metonym for the entire thing would be valid for a tag.

On the other hand, we do pedantically refer to the Big Ben by its official name, Elizabeth Tower, so this level of precision wouldn't be out of ordinary
