Capital Letters in Chatting

Capital letters were removed from the game a while ago. I am glad to see that they are gone. People were using them to get around chat filters. I have an idea. Why not bring back capital letters for the first letter in each word. Then we could have proper grammar. I do not see any flaws in this idea. Tell me if you see any.

KingsIsle’s commitment to maintaining a family friendly game and the increasing amount of players using the caps to talk around chat filters, it was deemed to be an appropriate action to remove the capitalization ability in the filtered chat. As long as you’re chatting appropriately and within the filters, there should be no issue with communications.

We will not be bringing back capital letters in chat.

I never asked this before and haven't seen an answer to it but, if I have a friend with filtered chat and I try to spell with proper grammar, meaning a capital letter on the first word in my sentence, or a name, does that mean the word cannot be read by the person with filtered chat?

They will see the words but they will not see which letters are upper case - they will all appear lower case.

If you have open/free chat, will you be able to use capital letters. I think capital letters look proper.
