I think it's worth calling out, although I suspect most of us are already aware, that in macOS most applications use the command/super key for shortcuts that would use ctrl in other OSes, while still also using ctrl and option/alt as application modifier keys as well.
I do not expect cross-platform apps to change their behavior on macOS as a result of this standard, even if they are otherwise compliant.
