Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V, etc, go back to ancient history. Those "old-timers" among us will remember an IBM standard, back at the dawn of time (well, around 1980-ish), called "SAA" - "Systems Application Architecture". Both the Mac and Windows GUIs were originally implementations of the SAA standard, and that's what specified these keyboard shortcuts. We're still using them 30-odd years later!
