That's a deal breaker for me.

I think I can count on one hand the number of games whose default key
binds were ones I wanted to use.

Sometimes I get the feeling game companies planned around a console
controller and then almost randomly assigned the "buttons" to keys on a
keyboard without any thought to usability.

Not having the ability to customize your keybinds has been unforgivable
since at least Halflife.   
There's absolutely no excuse for it, and they just lost a sale because
of it.
