I'm personally not a huge fan of the Ctrl key at all - when I do need to use it I have to either move my entire hand, or make my fingers bend in ways they're not supposed to.

That being said, I don't have a better idea for something to take its place...

I'm not familiar with German keyboards - is it a layout function? Can you set the keyboard to be US and then use Shift+2, or is that a pain to remember?
