I’m the person who can never learn how to use the shift to capitalize my letters and use caps-lock religiously.

That is bonkers to me. To me the Shift button is for single or a few characters, while Caps Lock is for full words and sentences. Did you grow up without a Shift key or where is that hatred for the Shift key coming from? ;)

It's not hatred, but I grew up in a 3rd world country where computer teaching didn't exist until I got to college, and even then, it was one 30 minutes class a week. I didn't even know many shortcuts and key combinations until I got to the US back in 2010. I'd never known that a shift key would do such things. All I knew was capslock is to make letters caps. I guess my brain was wired differently in this regard. I'm 42 now and I'm still catching up on a lot of things I've missed out on in my young days. I've just now gotten a job as a programmer literally 2 weeks ago (the irony of not knowing how to use the shift key, right?) I'm still learning about computers. I started using Linux back in 2018 and I'm still learning about it. Thanks to Linux, my learning process has been sped up a lot. Thanks for coming to my Ted talk, and I hope that that answers your question. Lol
