This was in fact a design trend so that all the letterforms were the same height, sans ascenders and descenders.

I advocate for this position as well, but it seems most of the world has broadened the original definition to include capitalisation of the opening letter as well these days

Incorrect sillysprout, Sillysprout, Silly Sprout or sillySprout.

I might have to bring back the ~ at the beginning and end of my username that I had on GR.

My first post on here was about ditching them.
