Yes, that's how I did it since I have memory and today is the standard.
Crtl and up/down in many editing programs means paragraph previous and next
also.
That's why I was so surprised when I learnt that Emacs is courteous to
them, but it's native keybindings were different. :)

You're absolutely right, it is my fault, I forgot that I bind them!
What you have is the standard, this was just to follow the same pattern
that in the rest of the keybindings (Meta key, Previous and Next).
The standard binding (just replace the row) is
| paragraph | M { | M } | - | - |
Sorry to all of you, I did it some time ago and just forgot it.
Best...
