That's why I think we should have an explicit "builtin" command, i. e. command with the name "builtin" that will always run the corresponding builtin command, no if there is a "command alias" or not - similar to the bash command

No. That's where the "always" in my sentence above comes into play. Even if you define such a variable I would just issue a warning and then ignore it when it comes to command execution.
