The OLC naming guidelines specifies:

[Plus codes] should not be capitalised...

However, the Google marketing website at https://maps.google.com/pluscodes/ repeatedly fails to follow these specifications. Plus codes is used in title case. (There are some cases where it is used in a heading, but context shows that headings are using sentence case, not title case.)

I understand that those projects maybe not be directly related to this repository and the website is not under version control here (it should be!) but please work with me. I have a lot of work to do here and need some help...

Unfortunate given how the documentation here was so insistent on lowercase, but Google's new style preference is "Plus Codes". Will keep this issue to track inconsistencies in code/documentation.

This issue is partially fixed at #463.

All documentation is updated. And the implementations are not updated.

I would like to help more here. But requesting, please, a review of that PR first. We can merge that and then I can work on making the implementations conformant.
