- tbrownaw 11y agoPedantry is an excellent way to deliberately miss the point.
- positron4 11y agoLanguage is a tool to be used effectively. The implications of a particular choice of words (or the capitalizations thereof) might make people uncomfortable. But conciseness is a virtue of its own.
- gnaritas 11y ago> Language is a tool to be used effectively. Which you are failing to do, thus the meta-discussion about your weird capitalization. Were your choices effective, no one would be mentioning it.
- gnaritas 11y agoAnd what reason is there to capitalize all those seemingly random words? It is quite annoying to the reader, they are not proper nouns and have no reason to be capitalized.
- positron4 11y agoLook carefully at my comment. Pick out the words that I have capitalized. There is nothing random about them.
- polymatter 11y agoProgrammers, accountants, owner, medieval and apprentices are all capitalized where I would leave them uncapitalized. It feels random to me. I put it down to a different writing style.
- gnaritas 11y agoThey are not proper nouns, and this isn't a contract, so they have no reason to be capitalized. Just because you intend it, doesn't make it correct, it just makes it annoying.
