Mmm, I'd give the points for consistency to the Mac here. I bet still, in 2017, there are text inputs in Windows apps that draw a little rectangular character when you type Ctrl + Backspace instead of doing the right thing.

In my experience apps frequently hard-code their keyboard behavior (Slack, Gimp), and websites hard-code shortcuts (Gmail, Atlassian products) based on detected OS, so even if you set up shortcut overrides like Ctrl-V to paste, some apps will glitch or simply fail in odd ways.
