The devmanual states:

The name section should contain only lowercase non-accented letters,
the digits 0-9, hyphens, underscores and plus characters. Uppercase
characters are strongly discouraged, but technically valid.

Why are uppercase characters strongly discouraged?

Wouldn't it make sense to follow upstream's naming convention?
