I'm not sure I've seen the sci-fi movie where Apple is heralded as the golden standard of key bindings, but having used Macs for a few years in real life, I can attest the key combinations are an absolute atrocity for the reasons you mentioned and then some. While I grew to accept some advantages of my Mac can't be easily replicated in other platforms, I think it is severely lacking in basic features, user experience and it's still occasionally infuriating even in 2025. I do have a very long list of Mac gripes, as is probably deductable from this comment.
