If you don't use caps lock, why did you bother making a mapping for it?
I've done the same, btw, using a ~60% keyboard and mapping caps-lock to escape. You can do that natively on Mac, and with xmodmap on Linux, but I used my keyboard's own configuration to do it so it's consistent across systems.
I also mapped the "real" escape key to backtick, because on this keyboard I'd otherwise need to us Fn to get there.

I remapped it "just in case". But you are right. I don't think I've ever used that key combination, and I don't think I ever will.
