I'm sure someone else will be able to show you how to enable CUA keybindings,
but I have to take issue with your claim that C-f, C-b, C-n, and C-p are less
intuitive than C-j, C-l, C-i, and C-i. The Emacs bindings have obvious
mnemonics: forward, backward, next, and previous. Your suggested bindings
based on the keyboard layout are like vi's (h, j, k, and l), but you use the
top and bottom rows to represent vertical motion, which does make more sense.
So how would you represent horizontal and vertical motion to the beginning and
end of the line or buffer?
