Even on Windows alone some shortcuts are terribly inconsistent.

Redo (Ctrl-Y or Ctrl-Shift-Z)

Replace (Ctrl-H, Ctrl-R or Ctrl-Shift-F)

Save As (F12 or Ctrl-Alt-S)

"Move current paragraph up" is inconsistent even between Microsoft's own programs: Alt-Shift-Up in Word, Alt-Up in VS Code and Visual Studio. Notepad++ adds to the pain with Ctrl-Shift-Up.

Ctrl-F doesn't open a Find dialog box in Outlook, I could go on.

For this, in Outlook, the explanation is (per Raymond Chen): Bill Gates

I've gone back and forth on this. It's an email client whose shortcut for Forward has been Ctrl-F for decades. After much soul-searching, I've come terms with Ctrl-E for sEarch.

You would think, at some point, they would add this in as an optional feature. I wonder how many people submit this as a piece of feedback.
