Macos shortcuts are ... more than weird. It's like someone said: we need shortcuts, and then took a random shortcut generator. Control + Command + Shift + 3/4 to do a selection-box screenshot.

Which one is save to clipboard and which one is save to disk? Who knows.

And then there is inconsistency. You're in Finder, where 'return/enter' (for some reason) invokes file rename. Cmd+O to open.

But in a file selector window, say Numbers, 'return/enter' actually opens the file...
