This seems unnecessary when all you need to do is define a key for org capture (I'm assuming here that Cmd-N is mapped to org-capture), which effectively drops you into its own keymap interface. Then the keys for each template are easily defined within template. Or is there something I'm missing here? EDIT: Also, the user's reference to Cmd+N leads me to believe they are still using C-n for navigation but has a Mac, which has an additional key called "Command".

Ah, that's fair. Generally a buffer on a relevant Org file is never not visible to me, so I don't really need org-capture and went with a keymap based on the direct-to-template invocation described in the linked documentation. I also use a Mac for work, but tend to forget about all the complex gymkhana I go through with keyboard prefs and Karabiner-Elements to get its keyboard to behave like those of the Linux and Windows machines I use. Since that includes remapping Caps to Command outside Emacs, and Command to Control inside it, that all probably makes my keybinding advice a little useless, or at least worth more consideration of how things would be in a closer-to-stock configuration.
