I guess it is a balancing act. On one level, org's tendency to use 'smart' key bindings in which behaviour/action changes depending on context is convenient, but on the other hand, I suspect it makes things more complicated, which usually means harder to get right or maintain.
The C-c , binding is in line with expansion/templates in other modes (at least in my configuration), so there is little cognitive overhead when I want to expand "something".
