The bindings haven't changed in the standalone version of RefTeX, only
in Emacs.

I will not port this change to the standalone version because it misses
the point of `reftex-extra-bindings' deliberately putting the bindings
into the user's `C-c <letter>' key binding domain.  I'd rather ask the
Emacs maintainers to back out the change in the Emacs repository.

I want to back this idea because things worked fine for me with the
"C-c" prefix.

I agree with Ralf.

What's the reason in changing it to ^C^Y?

Best,

Indeed, IIRC we had agreed that this is a case of the user deliberately
deciding to let RefTeX use some of his reserved key-sequences.  Maybe we
just forgot to back out the change.  Does anyone remember why the change
hasn't been reverted?

No.  Here's the discussion:
