Come to think of it, is there actually much of any point to capital vs lowercase letters? You know what the first word of a sentence is anyway because of the period before, and names can be identified by context. Why do we even have capitalization in the first place?
It's a plot by Big Typesetting to sell more letters. Wake up sheeple!

As I mentioned in another comment, the original reason we have majuscule and minuscule letters is the difference in materials they were written on. Having them persist in the typesetting is in fact more of a historical artifact
We need capitals, as otherwise shouting online would have to move to bold
Could always use italics, or excessive exclamation marks!!! Or * shouts at u * cringey online roleplay syntax.
Sure but that all takes extra keystrokes. Caps lock is cruise control for shouting
Also the *shouts at you* tag was classic in chat things, but places like this need escapes to make them look right
