Honestly this part of the XKCD meme never sat right with me. No self respecting emacs person would ever bind a command to C-x M-c

Meta after Ctrl rubs me the same way languages that use Subject Object Verb order do.

Like, you can do it, but it feels icky.

Also, you've gone to the trouble of creating a 'butterfly' key. Just use that.

A magnetized needle? Perfectly fine.

Butterflies causing cosmic rays to precisely flip bits? Don't see anything wrong with that.

A syntactically and ergonomically incorrect Emacs shortcut? Now that's going too much! Nobody would ever use that instead of M-x butterflies.
