I made sure my keybindings are set properly as yours.
For example,
in 2.0.1,
I could move the cursor backwards by typing ctrl + b with the checkbox
ticked
and by typing command +b with the checkbox unticked,
and in 2.0.2,
I have to type command + b in both the cases.

I'm thinking of going back to 2.0.1 and waiting for a bugfix
instead of using additional softwares or macros.
But thanks for your advice.
