I once worked in a shop where the EOF default had in fact been changed to ^Z on the Unix boxen, for consistency with Windows. I may have had a personal opinion about it not unlike yours, but the pilot at the time being my boss, I just made it my business to cheerfully explain it every. time. it. needed. explaining.
