Spaces are lexically significant in the English language because they indicate the breaks between words. "My files" are two English words that convey meaning to English speakers; "myfiles" is not a word at all and is meaningful only if we charitably insert the spacing necessary to make them meaningful. Capitalization does not impact meaning to English speakers in the same manner; "my files" and "My files" are understood to mean the same thing. Capitalization is in this case merely an artifact of sentence positioning and the like. It's orthographic convention and nothing more. Thus, to make the user have to understand that what is a meaningless distinction in English is a meaningful distinction to the user is, by definition, forcing the user to think like a machine.
