Ooops, good catch. I wasn't watching my p's and q's. Of course you're correct!

I prefer the semi-mnemonic q shortcuts to the fully-arbitrary
Ctrl+number which I find often makes me question which application I'm
in, before I key it. From the swap of p and v you caught me on, you
can see I need all the help available.
