Greetings All knowledgeable cisco router types

I thned to use the console port for all my out of band access, but on
occcations have also used the aux port, they seem to be interchangeable

but is there a difference?
are there things you can do with a console port that you cannot with an aux?
are there things you can do with an aux that you cannot with a console?

and if they are not different why didn't cisco just call them con 0 and con 1?

answers greatly appreciated
