Apple System Commands:
⌃A takes you to the start of a sentence.
⌃E should take you to the end of a sentence.
In Bike, ⌃A takes you to the start of the sentence but ⌃E takes you to the start of the next outline item.
Is that deliberate?

I think you mean “paragraph” not sentence right? I’ve never used those shortcuts (instead I use Option-Up/Down), but they are coming through to Bike as beginning/ending of paragraph.
Even so you are correct that Bike’s “end” behavior isn’t the same as what text edit does. I think I did do it for a reason, but now I don’t remember that reason… so maybe not a great reason. I need to look into the code more and see what I come up with. Will change to match system if I can.

Here are some useful ones, in case they are helpful:
Mac Text Navigation & Selection
Text Navigation Shortcuts
The first group of keyboard shortcuts allow for quickly moving around text:
Jump to beginning of a line – Command+Left Arrow
Jump to end of a line – Command+Right Arrow
Jump to beginning of current word – Option+Left Arrow
Jump to end of current word – Option+Right Arrow
Jump to beginning of all text – Command+Up Arrow
Jump to end of all text – Command+Down Arrow
By adding a shift key to the above shortcuts, we are given six new tricks that allow for quick text selection of lines, words, and entire documents.
Text Selection Shortcuts
The next group of keyboard shortcuts allow for quickly highlighting and selecting elements of text:
Select text to beginning of a line – Shift+Command+Left Arrow
Select text to end of a line – Shift+Command+Right Arrow

Select text to end of current word – Shift+Option+Right Arrow

Mac keyboard shortcuts - Apple Support
Control-A: Move to the beginning of the line or paragraph.
Control-E: Move to the end of a line or paragraph.
This is what Apple says. I think these are from Emacs but I could be mistaken.
