You could try and use one key for changing layers and have all the movement keys, or your most used keys, on that layer. You could even try to palm-press one of they keys since it seems doable on a Plank. Then you would not have a need to use the Ctrl key that often. I've tried this with the Ergo and one of the cluster keys. It works nicely. I'm not used to the modal, Vim-like editing though.

Palm presses don't really work for me. If I need to type fast and comfortable, I need to float my wrists well above the keyboard, kinda like a pianist. It's impossible to palm press from that position. Actually lowering my wrists to the level of the desk in front of the keyboard is painful, and I have a wrist rest in place to prevent that. So I can't really palm-press even when I'm not floating my hands as such.
