this is pretty bad form; it's almost as bad as overloading cmd-tab

Backtick to preferences shortcut appears to be defined at line 204 of this file:

No, it's actually defined here. The file you linked just defines what is shown in the dialog that lists the keybindings. In the future, that dialog should be replaced by one that reads the keybindings directly from the file where they are defined
