When I use the <s shortcut for #+BEGIN_SRC, Org puts it in upper case. And
#+RESULTS is in upper case too. I noticed other people have these keywords in
lower case in examples or config files, so I looked in the manual, which says
[1]
"Org uses option keywords (like #+TITLE to set the title) and environment
keywords (like #+BEGIN_HTML to start a HTML environment). They are written in
uppercase in the manual to enhance its readability, but you can use lowercase in
your Org files."
There's a footnote [2] that says:
"Easy templates insert lowercase keywords and Babel dynamically inserts
#+results."
How come this doesn't happen for me? I don't see any variable that's making
things default to upper case for me.
This isn't a problem ... I'm just curious.

I believe that, in general, things are case-insensitive in org-mode. Please
do help clarify this if this is wrong.
The only place that I have come across as case-sensitive is the tag system.
If you tag a sub-tree with ':archive:', it will not be archived. The tag
has to be ':ARCHIVE:'.

For one, there is a ~org-babel-results-keyword~ variable. Also I prefer
src block keywords not to stand out as such:
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(setcar org-structure-template-alist '("s" "#+begin_src ?\n\n#+end_src" ""))
#+end_src
For me, it's just a matter of taste.
Regards,
Bernhard
