Well said.
Capitalization (not to mention punctuation) is going down the drain in this age of phone texting.
That said...
SI missed its chance to dump "k" for "K", so that capitalization is consistent throughout negative and positive multipliers.
KKelvin shouldn't be a problem.
Sort-of similarly, deprecated Hecto (H) and Deka (D) could coexist with electromagnetism (and Hz).
What an imperfect world :-).
