I’d be -1 for CSS since: * extra CPU work not required * doesn’t work as you mentioned for “Reset to Default" * it’s not something optional that the user should be allowed to change! If they really want they’ll just need to override the translations (similar use case than if they wish to change some wording) Note that the rule I’m proposing is *ONLY* for English. I’m not proposing anything for other languages (each language has its own rules regarding Capitalization).
