Wayne,
That's just your opinion, and I respect that, but that's all it is. Don't present it as the norm for everyone. I use caps exclusively, and they are much more user friendly...for this singer, as well as those in our private Karaoke club.

In your own example, it is easier to scan the all upper case than the inconsistancy of lower case with it's variances, and as for why books aren't printed in all upper case, we read the same as we're trained to write, and that's lower case with caps. One would have to use block print to use all caps in penmanship which would be time consuming, but in many instances much easier to read.

Another argument against printing books in all upper case other than the reason you cite, is obvious in your own example. Upper case is too space consuming and would result in a larger book, much more expensive to produce.

And that's why they have Chocolate and Vanilla ice cream
