I'm one of those who's work would be severely disrupted by a hardwired
CTRL-ALT-Backspace Zap.  CTRL-ALT-Backspace is hardwired in my fingers
from nearly 30 years of editing using Emacs and kin.

However, I must agree that taking away the /option/ of turning that on
for those who want it is double plus ungood.
