Easy. I almost don't use Emacs default key bindings. I have highly
customized layer on top of Evil, where I have either rewritten or extended
certain text object, operators, and commands. Evil default keymaps were
also wiped out and the keys were totally rearranged by myself too. In other
words, I used evil as a framework to develop my own modal text editing
approach. Those essential commands which I might need from plain Emacs I
would just carefully map to those keys which I want once again, and it's
not that many of them. The rest (like 99%) default mappings are irritating
noise to me. Minimalism and pragmatism FTW.
