- Half my SQL queries are written inside some other script, like Python or bash, so capitalization is nice.

- Space is not wasted when it it makes code more readable.

- Yes, and also give the columns in select their own lines. So nice to read. Space well spend!

Good points. Maybe there is a difference between a SQL script embedded occasionally somewhere in python, for which this style probably makes sense.

For heavy SQL codebases found in data analytics, there are better styles.
