I will leave this to Emacs devs to decide about the layout.
The reference cards in Emacs follow certain format.
I am not sure if this patch is breaking it or not.

This is wrong. Org's default binding is C-c C-TAB.

Why?

I’ve removed the “(1/2)” and “(2/2)” numbers from the titles as they
overflow the columns, making them to be wider than expected thus breaking
the triptych format.
The US letter paper size is the same as the Emacs reference card.
The published PDF org-mode reference card is the rendered version of this
tex file. It’s in A4 format and the columns doesn’t have the same size,
making impossible to do a triptych with same sized columns. This is why I
modified it.

I cannot see any obvious problem with the layout and no objection have
been raised by the Emacs devs, so I am inclined to merge the patch
except the incorrect key binding change.

I will wait another week and go ahead with the merge.

The vast majority of Emacs refcards is using A4 layout, which I
think is fine for the Org refcard.

Attached are the current version and the one with the new layout. 
I do like the current version better, even for the (1/2) and (2/2)
parts, that I find missing.

José Miguel, what are you exactly trying to fix?  Is it about 
adding flexibility to the layout so that, if needed, one can use
the US letter format?

Hello Bastien, the current Org refcard cannot be used as a triptych (I’ve
tried with both Letter and A4 paper) in contrast to the Emacs refcard
(which can be used as a triptych when printed with Letter paper).

When checking its Tex source code, I’ve found that there are some
parameters missing and also one of the columns overflows because the title
is too long.

With the patched version I was able to print it in Letter paper and use it
as a triptych, like I did with the Emacs refcard.

Best regards,
José García.

Before I proceed, may I know if you have FSF copyright assignment?

Also, may you update the patch against the Org mode repository
(https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/emacs/org-mode.git/), removing the
incorrect key binding change, and adding the commit message as described
in https://orgmode.org/worg/org-contribute.html#commit-messages ?

Sure I can update the patch. I don't have the ''FSF copyright assignment'',
what's the process for that?

Also, what's the difference between the org-cards in the Emacs (
https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/emacs.git/tree/etc/refcards/orgcard.tex)
and Org Mode (
https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/emacs/org-mode.git/tree/doc/orgcard.tex)
repositories? Seems that the Emacs one is more up to date and that the Org
Mode one is missing some variables (e.g. orgversionnumber).

Do you want me to update both?

Here is the difference between the two cards, as of the last sync:

So there are some adjustments for the Emacs tree (e.g., don't depend on

You can just update the card on Org's side; the changes will be
propagated.

See https://orgmode.org/worg/org-contribute.html#copyright
Note that you do not strictly need it to get this particular patch
merged. However, if you plan to contribute further, we will require the
paperwork once your total contribution surpasses 15LOCs of code.

For now, since you don't have the copyright assignment, you can simply
add "TINYCHANGE" at the end of the commit message, as described in
https://orgmode.org/worg/org-contribute.html#first-patch (item 8).

Applied, onto main; with amendments.
I removed the key binding change, reworded the commit message, and added
TINYCHANGE cookie.
