    Technically, SQL is case-insensitive.

    Practically, you want to capitalise the commands anyway.

    It gives your code some gravitas. Always remember that when you’re writing SQL statements you’re speaking Ancient Words of Power.

    Does that JavaScript framework that got invented 2 weeks ago by some snot-nosed kid need Words of Power? No. Does the database that has been chugging on for decades upon decades need Words of Power? Yes. Words of Power and all the due respect.
