Did you try? For me it is not the same which is what I wanted to say
in the first place.

What do you mean by this when ~C-[ t~ is the same as ~M-t~? I expected
that ~C-x @ c [ t~ to be the same as ~C-[ t~ which is the same as
~M-t~.

Not for me. ~C-x @ m [~ results in "M-[ is undefined" but ~M-[~ waits
for more input (only when in Viper mode). So it looks like the same
issue. Anyway, you can discard as it is not what I am after at the
moment.

The "long story" is only mentioned to understand why I want to use
event-apply-control-modifier. The insanely looking minimal complete
example to substitute my use case is just ~C-x @ c [ t~ to get ~M-t~,
~C-x @ c [ u~ to get ~M-u~ and so on.
