I see you're talking about some alternative universe where you convince significant portion of publishers (if not a majority) to switch to uppercase. The practical question is, did teletype or early programming languages or road signs flip us over to that universe? Doesn't seem so. In the world where I am, lowercase text is more legible because it's ubiquitous.
- thaumasiotes 7y agoIf we ignore your advice and use capitalized text only for programming in, while books are still published in mostly lowercase, capitals will be so common for programmers that lowercase text will have no advantage over capitalized text. The styles don't compete with each other for space in your mind. It's just a question of whether you're used to them.
