There are a lot of default shortcuts, and they’re almost all
customisable. It might be worth adding some text about how changing
the behaviour of the modifier keys in Emacs doesn’t change their
effect in macOS.

But I think that bit of the manual, modifier keys (macOS), could do
with being rewritten. It’s slightly misleading and doesn’t mention the
ns-command-modifier variables at all.
