I've always remapped the useless Caps Lock key to CTRL key. There's a setting for it on both X11 and Wayland.
Some #vim users remap it to ESC, another frequently used key that's hard to reach from the home row.
So why can't we have both? Caps Lock can act as ESC when pressed alone, or CTRL when pressed in combination with another key.
