This can happen if the applications exposes single keys as shortcuts. If they are "hidden" behind the different modifiers (i.e. Ctrl, Cmd, Alt), then mis-clicks should not be possible or should be more tolerated.

The "intuitiveness" argument is also related. You cannot rebind well-known shortcuts to different actions and expect the user to not get frustrated.
