Yes totally, now let's use the same argument to change next mac release keyboard to Dvorak or Colemak layout. Look, you just need to go and change it in language setting! (to its credit both options, Dvorak & Colemak keyboard exist in Mac by default) The reason Mac doesn't do this, is ofc because strong majority of people are used to the QWERTY layout.
And I know how to change it, it was the first thing I did. and No you did need to restart apps/computer. (it even says that in your link!)
My point is that keyboard shortcut is a muscle memory thing, no point in lamenting over it too much if one shortcut exist in the next system, albeit another place, if it's same behavior (looking at you Alt-Tab). But how the input work is another matter; makes no sense to me to remove the steering wheel of a car and replace it with a flight stick, especially when there's already cross-platform apps that make certain strong assumptions about the users platform. (keyboard, mouse, certain keys such as copy-paste is reserved, etc)
