You can map caps lock to escape (I map it to control). The bigger complaint I have heard is muscle memory from vim people used to the Mac layout.

Control not being in the corner also trips a lot of people up.

It's much more ergonomically convenient to have the command key under the thumb. I had issues with this only for the first two weeks after moving to Mac and now it's natural.

Ok, but I'm talking about Control, not Command. And on mac laptops, the corner is taken up by the Function key instead of Control.

Ah, I swapped control with alt long ago so it's under my thumb too.
