If you use the Keyboard System Preference you can customize the modifier keys.  Perhaps this will hep?

 

I do not have Sierra currently available or unfortunately a PC keyboard to test but in Catalina I can modify the Function Keys on my Magic Keyboard.  Perhaps the option is there for you as well.
