Random capitalization is like scare quotes -- it distracts from the message and focuses the reader on whatever underlying motive or mindset the writer might have.

I did not randomly capitalize. The capitalization has been made for a reason.

Pedantry is an excellent way to deliberately miss the point.

Language is a tool to be used effectively. The implications of a particular choice of words (or the capitalizations thereof) might make people uncomfortable. But conciseness is a virtue of its own.

Which you are failing to do, thus the meta-discussion about your weird capitalization. Were your choices effective, no one would be mentioning it.

And what reason is there to capitalize all those seemingly random words? It is quite annoying to the reader, they are not proper nouns and have no reason to be capitalized.

Look carefully at my comment. Pick out the words that I have capitalized. There is nothing random about them.

Programmers, accountants, owner, medieval and apprentices are all capitalized where I would leave them uncapitalized. It feels random to me. I put it down to a different writing style.

They are not proper nouns, and this isn't a contract, so they have no reason to be capitalized. Just because you intend it, doesn't make it correct, it just makes it annoying.
