My guess is that whoever sets the default to capitalizing the first word of each line writes a lot of to-do lists and one line texts. One tap turns it off, and I would think that anyone who thinks about words enough to write a poem and post it would want to control which words are capitalized.

Though, f your keyboard s m ss ng the I or a staple s crammed underneath t, that can be forg ven.

Rant over.
I think you make a great point Marcella, but most are not setting the CAP default themselves. That has been a standard for every word application that I have ever used. Most don't know how to change the default setting, so thanks for sharing the tip. More than likely, folks are just claiming to follow the convention of the old masters rather than admit that they are to lazy to edit the auto-caps out.
