Research direction
Start by locating the command definitions or synonym list for /ask and /btw in the CLI. Add /ot as an alias, then verify that an /ot prompt such as the example in the issue follows the same workflow as /ask and /btw.

Description
Describe the feature or problem you'd like to solve
The first time I wished the feature existed, I tried typing /ot (for off-topic). That was my first instinct, and others might have the same.
Proposed solution
What the title says: Add /ot to the list of synonyms for /ask and /btw.
Off-topic has a good correlation with what the feature is about. I guess it depends on their mental model. I just think it can be more intuitive for some people to type /ot than /ask or /btw. Unless you are reserving /ot for something else, I think it's an easy win.
Example prompts or workflows
/ot what is the command to block inbound traffic based on ip address?
