those two keybindings are both the same

perhaps you meant

Ctrl + Shift + T  versus  Ctrl + T

you really do have to be much clearer when describing keybindings, at

as far as I know gnome-terminal is a special case and developers
intentionally chose the keybindings so as to avoid colliding with console
applications.

it would be nice if we could make things more consistent but I dont
believe this is a case where we can do that.
