Don't get how original Windows designers thought the ctrl key had a better ergonomic position than alt. Is there a legacy reason? @mwichary
IBM PC 5150 keyboard in 1981 had Ctrl to the left of A. Then they had backlash from people who loved Selectrics. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Model_F_keyboard …

VT05 had control in the "correct" place (no upper case, no capslock). Vt52 and Vt100 added caps lock but kept control left of it.
