General Questions • Keyboard Configuration Debian Unstable

Hi newb here, just wanted to ask a question as think I have fixed the issue, or so i believe.

I recently installed debian unstable but was unable to get the super key working which is the windows key for me, Super_L. After much searching online i found the fix, it has something to do with gnome desktop i think, which is the de im using.

So i had to clear and reset gnome input sources like so in command below.
This did not persist after reboot or logout so i finally realized that dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration was to blame so i configured it so that no compose key were selected, this fixed the issue of persisting over reboots and logout. Im guessing gnome de must handle the keyboard therefore no need to use dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration or is this a bug/feature?

I did do a debootstrap to install this system, so i followed a guide where it said to use dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration.

So now my /etc/default/keyboard config looks like this...
