No, they are written in all caps, because lawyers think that it is a necessary component of the "conspicuous" requirement of the Uniform Commercial Code, and nobody feels strongly enough about it to really test it in court and risk damaging oneself.

I thought they were written in all caps to lower the probability of anyone actually ever reading them.

You not only simply repeated what the grandparent was saying, but you also didn't engage what I wrote in any meaningful way.

This kind of "cute" comments is killing this site.
