You can rebind caps to backspace in GNOME. I think you use GNOME tweaks. I've done it on all of my computers.

I did this initially, but I believe it didn't work for all applications - some were still registering it as Caps Lock (e.g. VS Code IIRC).

Oh shucks, I should have known you would have tried it. Sorry, I was hoping I had a silver bullet for you.

No worries, worth a try!
