Giver - why are rules in capital letters?

You're right to notice that! It's unusual to see rules written entirely in capital letters. There are a few possibilities why someone might do that:

* Emphasis: They might be trying to emphasize the importance of the rules. Capital letters can make text stand out and seem more authoritative.

* Formal Setting: In very formal settings, like legal documents, rules might be written in all caps for clarity and to avoid confusion with abbreviations.

* Technical Instructions: Sometimes, instructions or technical documents will use all caps to make specific terms or keywords stand out.

* Accessibility: For people with visual impairments, all caps can be easier to read, as the difference between upper and lowercase letters can be difficult to discern.

* Personal Preference: Someone might just prefer the look of text in all caps.

It's important to note: While all caps might be used for the reasons above, it's generally considered poor form for regular writing. It can make text difficult to read and be interpreted as shouting.

If you're unsure why someone is using all caps, it's always a good idea to ask them directly.
