I Wish Headlines Did Not Have Capital Letters at Every Word, FFS, FFFS

What is the origin of capitalization. Is upper and lower case really a reference to cases full of printing press letters?


Why does it bother you so much?


Because when I read a headline like "Power Worth Less Than Zero Spreads as Green Energy Floods the Grid (bloomberg.com)" I'm like... wait, is "Zero Spreads" the name of a company, or "Green Energy", or "Energy Floods"? It just takes a lot longer to process.


"I Wish Headlines Didn't Capitalise Every Word" - fixed that for you.


Much appreciated
