You do realize you're not being forced to use that key, right?

Even after the update to the default key-bindings, they are still default -- you can change them if you don't like them.

I think the point here is to make Istaria's default keys closer to most other MMORPGs' default keys so that NEW players have an easier time getting used to Istaria, especially if they have played other MMORPGs.

Now, the camera/mouse thing is something nice for veteran and new players alike, but most of the other changes wouldn't affect veterans at all as we probably already likely have the keys set exactly the way we want them.
