I tied to dig into commit history and I do not see any justification why
ESC <left> could be omitted from default non-terminal bindings.

I agree that the current behaviour is inconsistent.

The fix is attached.

Best,

Subject: [PATCH] org-keys: Bind ESC <left> by default

* lisp/org-keys.el (org-mode-map): Bind `org-metaleft' to ESC <left>
by default, not just in terminals.  This completes the ESC <arrow>
binding group.  ESC <right>, <up>, and <down> are already bound and
missing ESC <left> can be confusing.
