Not to drag us too deep into philosophy, but you can make a pretty good case for the Linux way as well. On my machine, the super key is mapped exclusively to window manager shortcuts. It's how I move, close and resize windows, change splits, open apps, switch workspaces, pop open temp terminals, emojii choosers, a calculator, all that quality of life stuff. Copying and pasting is an app thing, and apps get ctrl and alt as their modifiers. It does make sense to me.
