Thanks for the clarification. Unfortunately Enter shouldn’t have been a default in the first place no matter how unpopular that opinion is. I am not expecting users to use the Tab and the Enter keys for general navigation (that is why there are 3 other shortcut keys to choose from), the Tab and Enter is there to support users with disabilities (e.g. a motor disability or impaired vision). There are laws and regulations around accessibility, that shouldn’t be ignored.
As for switching the tab order, that would not follow the general guidline of left to right top to bottom navigation. I think it would be a problem for the users that I was addressing when the enter key was removed.
I hope this extra context helps, and like I said I appreciate your feedback.
