    Like my wife who uses Caps Lock to create capital letters. I’ve told her to use shift but she’s too far gone.

      This could be a typewriter holdover. I have vague recollections of some shitty '70’s typewriters having only a caps lock (or rather shift lock) toggle to save on two keys. I might have hallucinated that, though. It’s been a while.

      Or she is just being obtuse. I don’t know how old you two are.

        We’re in our 40’s, so not old enough for typewriters. I do remember my dad had one at his workplace though!
