The Caps Lock button on MacBooks knows if you really want to press it. (alien.top)

Try to hit your CAPS Lock button as if it's a mistake and see what happens. Mine is reading my mind.

The difference between unintentional hit and an intentional one is very slight, but it knows :)

Yes it is like that by default. I've found it annoying that sometimes I press Caps Lock and it doesnt turn on, so I've found an app called CapsLockNoDelay which prevents this from happening. So every time I press Caps Lock soft or hard, it works.

    Holy shit thank you for this. The caps lock delay has been the one thing that has continually pissed me off as a lifelong Windows user who switched to Mac 3 years ago.

    I have developed the terrible habit of using the caps lock key instead of the shift key when I’m trying to capitalize at the beginning of a sentence. Definitely not efficient but I can be bothered to undo a habit that I’ve had for over a decade. This is going to save me so much frustration
