I’m actually going to push back on this one. esc exits fullscreen mode for many mac apps, and I think all native ones, but it is not universal. And escape is used often enough while using the app (getting out of quick switcher, getting out of link autocomplete, etc) that I think the danger of an unintentional leaving fullscreen is too annoying to justify changing this.

Yep, ESC should be reserved for out-of-full-screen in MacOSX. Use it myself quite a lot.

Fn+F should be the standard for going in and out of full screen nowadays. It’s easy to hit and it works consistenty.
