Not better, just different.
In the general case, shortcuts with ctrl use cmd on Mac (like ctrl-c,
ctrl-v, etc), but some navigation shortcuts (like previous / next word) use
alt on osx where windows use ctrl.

So having both meta and alt-meta bindings as I described, lets you represent
both, but, due to the nature of alt, some care/restrictions would need to be
applied to alt-meta that are not necessary for meta.
