I'm not familiar with Org mode.  As I said, I don't even know
whether it binds such keys in a minor mode (which is fine) or
in a major mode (which is not).

Since you are familiar with whatever bindings Org sets, and you
have read the key-binding conventions section of the manual,
please file a bug if you think it is appropriate.  You are well
placed to give the details.

(FWIW, I seem to recall that I pointed this out to you a few
years back.)

There is a specific list of keys reserved for users, and another
list of keys reserved for minor modes.  If a major mode is using
keys from either of these lists then that should be fixed.

Consideration of whether to fix bugs should not be based on
your habits or memory.  (I am not claiming there is an Org bug
here - I don't know.  That's for you to judge.)
