Sometimes it's easier - and more flexible - creating a function, or a script, instead of using aliases.
But glad it works

xkbfreegeomkeyaliases
XkbFreeGeomKeyAliases(3) XKB FUNCTIONS XkbFreeGeomKeyAliases(3)
NAME
XkbFreeGeomKeyAliases - Free geometry key aliases
SYNOPSIS
void XkbFreeGeomKeyAliases (XkbGeometryPtr geom, int first, int count, Bool free_all);
ARGUMENTS
- geom geometry in which key aliases should be freed
- first
first key alias to be freed
- count
number of key aliases to be freed
- free_all
True => all key aliases are freed
DESCRIPTION
Xkb provides a number of functions to allocate and free subcomponents of a keyboard geometry. Use these functions to create or modify key-
board geometries. Note that these functions merely allocate space for the new element(s), and it is up to you to fill in the values
explicitly in your code. These allocation functions increase sz_* but never touch num_* (unless there is an allocation failure, in which
case they reset both sz_* and num_* to zero). These functions return Success if they succeed, BadAlloc if they are not able to allocate
space, or BadValue if a parameter is not as expected.
If free_all is True, all aliases in the top level of the specified geometry geom are freed regardless of the value of first or count. Oth-
erwise, count aliases in geom are freed beginning with the one specified by first.
RETURN VALUES
Success The XkbFreeGeomKeyAliases function returns Success if there are no allocation errors.
DIAGNOSTICS
BadAlloc Unable to allocate storage
BadValue An argument is out of range
