Apple ID change to Alias

I have my original Apple ID: Sample1@me.com. This is my primary email address for a lot of things.

I created an alias under that Apple ID: NewID@icloud.com.

I want to use the alias as my primary Apple ID…will I lose my original Apple ID or will it become an alias?

Will my contents transfer over?

From: Add and manage email aliases for iCloud Mail on iCloud.com - Apple Support

"Note: You can’t delete or turn off a primary iCloud Mail address. You can’t use an alias to create a separate Apple ID, and an email alias can’t be converted to a primary iCloud Mail address."
