   I think you are unusual, I cannot imagine contorting my hand into the
   position required to type C-z or C-x if the control key was to the
   left of 'A'.  

Well, that shows a difference!  I find that with my pinky over the
control key to the left of 'A', my first finger is over the `X' key.
C-x requires no change of my normal hand.

The implication for this discussion is that different people use their
keyboard differently, and it is wise to create a set of keybindings
that work for these different hands.
