I do this and while I'm on my magic keyboard I sometimes forget and keep using the physical Esc key. I need to see if I can use something like BTT/Keyboard Maestro to respect the physical (or Touchbar) Esc key but send a notification of something like "You should use the Caps Lock Key instead" to help train myself better. I will say it's really nice that macOS makes it stupid easy to map Caps Lock to Esc and it work flawlessly for me.
