You can actually have it both ways. I use Karabiner to map ESC to caps lock if it's touched by itself, or CTRL if you hit caps lock with another button.
I like it, although I don't use it a lot. It's a nice to have more then a must have. But it works so far flawlessly. I do like having Touch ID.
Probably be more useful once more apps take advantage of it. So far only a few non-Apple apps I use take advantage of it. I do hope Slack takes advantage soon.

I used Keyboard Maestro to create shortcuts for volume up/down, brightness up/down, play/pause, previous/next, and Mission Control.
I already had Caps Lock mapped to Escape with Karabiner-Elements.
