But, if a word would normally be capitalized in the sentence (e.g., a proper noun, an acronym, or a stylization) it should remain capitalized. User roles (e.g., "observer" or "maintainer") and features (e.g. "automations") in the Fleet product aren't treated as proper nouns and shouldn't be capitalized. Words/phrases that follow steps numbers (e.g. "Step 1: create") in the documentation shouldn't be capitalized. The reason for sentence case at Fleet is that everyone capitalizes differently in English, and capitalization conventions have not been taught very consistently in schools. Sentence case simplifies capitalization rules so that contributors can deliver more natural, even-looking content with a voice that feels similar no matter where you're reading it.
