there are more unicode lowercase code points than are dreamt of in your philosophy
if we're thinking in terms of printing using pieces of metal, it's clear that blackboard bold lowercase characters are correctly understood as lowercase if you're using a typewriter, since you make them by double-striking. in terms of printing as something involving people hauling around gutenberg-ass pieces of metal in cases sorted by miniscule and magiscule, then you know what

YOU DO NOT HAVE TO BE GOOD
YOU DO NOT HAVE TO HOLD DOWN A SPRINKED PINKY
FOR A HUNDRED CHARACTERS THROUGH THE POST REPEATING
YOU ONLY HAVE TO LET THE HARD SPADCOPS OF YOUR KEYBOARD
LOCK WHAT IT LOCKS

>>> mc.morse('.../---/...')
>>> mc.dot()
>>> mc.dash()
