    Yes it’s not against the rules, but that is probably more an indicator that the rules could use some tweaking. You yourself agree it’s ‘eye-stabby’. Why would you not want to prevent such unpleasantness, then?

      Part of it is the whole “keep the headline as written” thing. It’s unambiguous which is good, but opens up for issues like this. I’m not going to fault someone for one literal copy/pasted headline.

      If it becomes a problem then the mods will get together on it. Fortunately most articles aren’t in all caps.
