It can be worth a few minutes crawling through the menus and accessibility settings. The one I like is you can universally change the short cut for paste so that “paste without formatting” is the default CMD-V

That's a very good idea. But do you just create one for "All Applications" called "Paste without formatting"?

Yes though iirc I had to do something special for Office. Not at my computer to check, but office was the most important one.
