Could it be trying to support

which IIRC is a Dvorak layout but with Qwerty Command-keychords
already ingrained in Mac users' muscle memory?

P.S. DV Dvorak layout vs. DQ Dvorak - Qwerty ⌘ layout
Apple key labels -> Emacs 26.0.50 events
Dvorak Qwerty DV DQ
H J h h
D H d d
⌘H ⌘J s-h s-j
⇧⌘H ⇧⌘J s-H s-H
⌥⌘H ⌥⌘J M-s-˙ M-s-∆
⌘D ⌘H s-d s-h
⇧⌘D ⇧⌘H s-D s-D
⌥⌘D ⌥⌘H M-s-∂ M-s-˙
Special characters in all layouts per Keyboard Viewer or (setq ns-option-modifier 'none)
Key Chord Character Unicode Name
Option-D ∂ PARTIAL DIFFERENTIAL
Option-H ˙ DOT ABOVE
Option-J ∆ INCREMENT
P.P.S. /System/Library/Input Methods/KeyboardViewer.app shows keyboard layout, tracking input source & bucky bit state
in real time. Turns out there are eight different Option layouts, one for each Control/Shift/Command combination.
Perhaps C-q quoted-insert should access these MacOSX alternate layouts by binding ns-option-modifier to none for NS,
similarly current-input-mode/set-input-mode for tty input and finally insert the next input key sans bucky bits.
