I never really liked C-[, kj is just a finger roll away and it's ingrained in my muscle memory now. I try to avoid shift as much as possible as I get a very cramped finger if I have to use shift too much. I have a lot of custom TeX bindings for this as well (i.e. <Leader>b => {} (braces), <Leader>p => () (paren)). I even rebound 44 to $$ because I don't type 44 that often anyway.
