Huh?  Just do C-x C-x and then C-M-f or C-M-b (instead of C-M-SPC) as needed.
E.g.:  C-M-SPC C-M-SPC M-b C-x C-x C-M-f C-M-f

I'm not claiming it's more convenient, just pointing out that it can be done
in a way that's not particularly inconvenient (e.g. I use it every once
in a while, tho it's mostly when I've hit C-M-SPC too many times and need to
step back a bit).
