We have changed other parts of our written language the last decade, so there is no reason for this special problem. The "younger" of us start to communicate via cryptic SMS codes years ago. LOL is a expression that has replace other expressions of laughter even in spoken language. A company named "Malus domestica" starts now to bring acronyms like "App" into a broader audience.

I wasn't complaining, I was saying I find it unnecessary. What are we discussing?

Are we discussing case-sensitivity in computer languages? I find this part totally unnecessary to discuss upon. Case-Sensitive languages already made it part of their language definitions. Computer languages, like it or not, have definitions that they strictly adhere to. C# have it, VFP have it, Phyton have it, VB have it .... all that I know have it. I don't know a single language that works without some definition. Even languages like Prolog have it. If you accept that they should have definitions then you are accepting case-sensitivity in some of them as their part of syntax. So what are we discussing, that is what I don't understand and if you think I am compalining, it is what I am complaining about.
