This bothers me as well. I also have issues with the esc key though. Apparently, I tend to rest my finger on it without noticing (I had no idea). So my subconscious experience with this new laptop is that it seems quite neurotic, constantly closing windows in front of me for no apparent reason, until I discover my finger on the touchbar.

First they came for Scroll Lock and I did not speak out -- because who uses Scroll Lock?

Then they came for the PgUp and PgDown keys and I did not speak out -- because I could always use Fn-arrows.

Then they came for Esc and I did not speak out -- because I use Emacs.

Then they came for the whole keyboard -- and there was no way I could write about it.

Yep. I'm right there with you. I thought the new mac had an issue loading webpages. Turns out I was involuntarily cancelling navigation with ESC all the bloody time.
Same here. Extremely annoying and I hit this often.
