[^1]: Really what's happening is that `Shift` + my right home-thumb morph into
caps-word. This gives me two separate ways of activating it: (1) Holding the
homerow-mod shift on my left index-finger and then pressing my right home-thumb, which
is my new preferred way. Or, (2) double-tapping the right home-thumb, which also works
because the first tap yields sticky-shift, activating the mod-morph upon the second
tap.
