For some more context, other functions are not really consistent about uppercase/lowercase:
- =org-insert-structure-template= lowercase
- =org-insert-drawer= uppercase
- =org-insert-property-drawer= uppercase
- =org-babel-exp-code-template= defaults to uppercase
- =org-clock-find-position= defaults to uppercase :END:
- =org-feed-write-status= defaults to uppercase
- =org-inlinetask-insert-task= defaults to uppercase
- =org-mobile-write-agenda-for-mobile= defaults to uppercase
- =org-babel-examplify-region= lowercase

I just looked for END vs end.

So, unless there is overwhelming support for changing uppercase
defaults into lowercase and a thorough patch, I am inclined towards
preserving the existing behaviour.

Changing just RESULTS keyword provides no benefit to making things
consistent.

Best,
