Worst for me: I have to move both hands: Ctrl is... well, Ctrl, too
low, and my [ key is on the far right and, normally, it would need
Alt-Gr to be pressed.
I prefer the mappings you've posted below ;)))

I don't use any language with something like 'jk' or 'jj' (although
I've written that combination some times in *this* thread!), so they fit
pretty well and avoids me hitting ESC.
Sometimes I just forget how powerful are vim mappings. It doesn't
seem natural to me to map letters in insert mode O:)))
Thanks for your help, as always!
