Because it also sends the kill signal in every terminal I've witnessed yet... And you have it right on screen the second you start Nano.

I'm over here using Ctrl c all over the place to kill stuff...

Yeah, you could use that as well.

Can you please elaborate on the first part? It is not standard Linux terminal behavior to send the KILL signal on Ctrl+X.

Actually, you are right. I will stand by my point that Nano tells you what to press, but I wonder where I got the stuff about Ctrl+X... I am very positive that I have used it at some point (outside of Nano), but maybe my brain is playing tricks on me 🤔
