Never bothered me and I don't think this is a marketing thing.

But on Android you can always use another keyboard, or go to gboard settings, text correction and turn off auto-capitalization.

I didn't realize the settings were that fine grained -- that's on me. I thought it was all or nothing, for auto-correction.

Thanks!

Hmm... Upon reflection, I may have a vague memory of seeing that -- well before the brand name capitalization went berserk. I may have originally kept it because beginning of sentence capitalization was a nice to have. I tend to use the default keyboard along with whatever they are calling swipe-typing these days.
