Make the shortcut yours
In Shortcuts, choose shared modifier keys and two different letters: one for opening / moving forward and one for moving backward. Click Apply; no restart is needed. Reset shortcuts restores ⌘⌥V / ⌘⌥C.
Shortcuts use physical Latin-layout keys, so they keep working when you switch input languages. If registration fails, the previous pair stays in place.
