I mean it's still there, it's just not a physical key right?

And you can use ctrl [ instead which is closer to the home row anyway.

If you can't rebind keys, Ctrl [ is THE most ergonomic way to use VIM. I really don't understand why you would use the real Esc key. It's too far away to be useful.

It is, which means this whole thing is a tempest in a teapot which will look phenomenally dumb in 3 months.
