I'm new to the group, and I'm sure this has been beaten to death

style capitalization of titles? The style guide
sites/ The Chicago Manual of Style/; why not use proper capitalization,
like the section /Writing Style/?
Sentence style capitalization is perfectly legitimate and it is not
improper. We do have two professional technical editors here. Sentence
style capitalization is easier to get right.
I understand that sentence style capitalization is
simple, but why dumb down the writing process?
Why make it complicated unless there's a good benefit.
I've certainly never seen any real book with
titles treated this way.
I have. I just got up and grabbed a book at random. The first book I
picked had sentence style capitalization.
Cheers,
Daniel.
