Mind sharing what you used to get this Esc behavior? (single vs combo hit)

I'd like to know as well.

I've got [capslock] mapped to [control] via system prefs already, and I'm not willing to give that up. As a Vim user, that puts me in a quandary for how to deal with the [escape] key should I ever move to a touchbar MBP, and is one of the reasons I'm still typing this on a 2012 MBPr. I live inside Vim all day every day.

I am using Karabiner Elements: https://pqrs.org/osx/karabiner/

You can do all kinds of Keyboard modifications. See here for the mentioned mod: https://pqrs.org/osx/karabiner/complex_modifications/#caps_l...

I configured mine using Hammerspoon with this plugin:
