The member in question is a company. Companies are not embarrassed nor ashamed.

Maybe. Sometimes they act as if they are, or at least their directors etc do.


But actually there may be no reason for the member to be embarrassed here. I suspect the issue is the idiosyncratic way in which small cap variants of ASCII letters have been encoded within the font, in the PUA, rather than being handled with proper markup. I suspect that that is a matter of how the product has been used rather than of its basic capabilities.
