I was actually thinking the opposite. I got quite a way through the article before I realized "Hang on - None of the paragraphs and sentences start with uppercase letters!" As a father trying to teach two small children to read and write, I've begun to think it's kind of annoying and unnecessary to have two different forms. It's easy enough to teach when they are just bigger glyphs, e.g. O -> o, C -> c, S -> s, etc. But having uppercase and lowercase that are entirely different is just a pain in the ass, e.g. A -> a, D -> d, G -> g, R -> r, etc. I do wonder if literacy might be improved if we got rid of uppercase, to little to no detriment elsewhere. (I'm sure someone here can probably sight some data on that!)
