From my perspective of using nano for all simple text editing on linux, ctrl-X to exit seems very intuitive to me. Plus it's even used in that one famous Matrix scene[1] where he is trying to close out of whatever he sees open on his c

The original post said both "Billons of Chinese" and "1 Billion", so who knows, it may be closer to the full 1.4 Billion than we think.
