Life can be beautiful we don't have to suffer because it's already there.

Remapping takes less than 5 seconds in MacOs and Linux. 2 minutes in Windows. And you only have to set it up once.

Also my left pinkie never misses CapsLock and I don't even have to think about it. Can't say that's the case for Ctrl+[ which I have used extensively for one year. I am really happy I switched.

What do you do when you need Ctrl in non-vim contexts?

I just press Ctrl ?

But frankly I don't use Ctrl that much. Ctrl + L/K in Firefox (I use vimium but I prefer the native bar) And I have Ctrl + J/K to switch terminal tabs In vim I only rarely use Ctrl + I/O

Are you often working within the command line? I don't use vim bindings elsewhere so I use these a lot: "Edit a command line" section on https://support.apple.com/en-gb/guide/terminal/trmlshtcts/ma...
