Personally I prefer to use Karabiner-Elements to remap the right alt-key to ctrl. Been doing that since the first MacBook Pro when the key in that position was “Enter”.

I find I don’t really miss the right alt key at all.

And what a nightmare it is to jump on a macbook because of that. I go crazy when I need to use an Apple keyboard. I can't begin to understand that particular ui choice.
