Far various reasons I am learning bzr. I guess I hadn't fully internalized the "distributed" in Distributed Version Control System because I ran into two scenarios that were similar, but in one bzr get was used and in the other bzr branch was used, so I headed for the help to find out the differences:
$ bzr help branch
usage: bzr branch FROM_LOCATION [TO_LOCATION]
aliases: get, clone
Create a new copy of a branch.
...
Get and branch are just aliases!
Then my head exploded.
