That's some weirdest complain, sounds like standing in a fully stocked kitchen and muttering there's nothing to eat. You're using the pinnacle of malleable apps, why don't you just rebind the keys you don't like?

But I find that there are cases in my workflow that I am more bothered by these things in magit than benefit I get from it.
