that's an interesting perspective. Am surprized that you feel tty users would find C-z z significantly harder than just C-z as the key to suspend Emacs.

I assume tty users have "C-z to suspend" hardwired in their fingers and would be quite surprised if any application decides to use another binding for it.


That's correct, except if that application uses C-z C-z to suspend. Repeating a key until it produces the expected effect is also something tty users are used to do. For example repeating C-c until the program aborts.
