I don't know if "ergo" is the right name to describe this project.
Most of the default emacs key-bindings are very ergonomic, assuming you remap your ctrl to your caps lock. Most of the commands that you use most frequently can be entered in with just your left hand, with your little finger on the ctrl key and the other key (or other 2 keys) positioned so that they can be quickly typed with two different fingers. The default mappings are a pain to learn but they make more sense from a practical perspective.
