I mean that it would not change the current binding for C--.

I personally agree with Richard that C-- and C-+ is a better default
and I also think it's okay if negative prefix argument is only on M--.
However, Eli has stated in Bug#28182 that he doesn't want a backward
incompatible change.
AFAICT, s-- and s-+ has some precedence. It's used in Sublime
Text. Atom and VSCode use C-- and C-+. This is from searching the
web.

Familiarity and ease of use. BTW, we have more than two such keys:
C-x C-+ text-scale-adjust
C-x C-- text-scale-adjust
C-x C-0 text-scale-adjust
C-x C-= text-scale-adjust
