Words in all caps are harder to read.

Oh god, I thought that was an April Fools joke. Does Microsoft not hire design people? It looks horrific!

Given that the post is called "A DESIGN WITH ALL-CAPS" (yeah, the title is all-caps, funny thing), maybe, the real problem precisely that they are supporting their designers's view, over their user's feedback. You know, trying to defend their "artistic integrity"...

What's really funny is that a whole bunch of people are responding in the comments with all caps :-)

It's a reference to the new VS menu design.
