What I definitely know that here is some
misunderstanding that needs clarification.
The Info node (info "(emacs) Keys") says:
‘C-x’ and ‘C-x 4’ are prefix keys.
The same way 'C-x 4 4' is a prefix key as well.
There is no reason to change this prefix key
to something more hard to type such as 'C-x 4 x y z ...'
