In WordPress, https://core.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/38897 made some editor keyboard shortcuts more discoverable by adding them to the buttons tooltips. See also https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/43773

Instead, in Gutenberg the keyboard shortcuts are not exposed in the tooltips, not even the ones in the Classic editor (which is TinyMCE):

For more details on how the shortcuts are added and translated, see src/wp-includes/js/tinymce/plugins/wordpress/plugin.js in WordPress, which gets the translations from PHP via the localized editor settings object.

Aside:
notice the positioning (and size) of the tooltips in the classic editor block (TinyMCE) is different from the one in the Gutenberg blocks.
