I never use CTRL+W to close all windows.

When I press it by mistake it sometimes results in loss of whatever
I've been working on, with no warning, and no recovery.

Naturally, I want to disable this annoying shortcut.

How do you - might I ask - accidentally press CTRL+W?

Isn't it obvious? "I'm done with this window now, so I'll Ctrl-W to
get rid of it. Whoops! the focus was somewhere other than I thought,
so I got rid of a window I want to keep instead of one I wanted to
get rid of."

And there's also "I'm done with this window now, so I'll Ctrl-W to
get rid of it. Whoops! I just realized I still needed that window
after all."
