that defense reminds me of the late, former Toronto mayor Rob Ford's justification for smoking crack "in one of my drunken stupors". Incidentally, that's where my handle comes from.

So I dug some more - this is the vxgl, a graded list of >125k American vocab items (you can find the corresponding research paper in the file list). If I were you, I'd use ChatGPT to write me a simple analysis tool.

Okay, so I'm more familiar with CEFR than North American standards, but generally, there's no "exact" way to measure that (afaik). There's a variety of readability assessment tools out there; however, they're mostly for texts, not individual words. Maybe this link can help as a starting point?
READABILITY FORMULAS AND GRADE LEVEL SCORES

Bis auf die hygienischen Zustände überrascht mich daran leider wenig. Also: Nicht, dass es überall in der Gastro genauso zugehen würde. Aber zumindest über den Umgang und die arbeitsrechtlichen Geschichten wird sich kein Küchenmensch wundern.

It sure is confusing! I mean, it's also the same with fFacebook - their logo is stylized all lower case, but if you check their terms and conditions/any official communication, it's Facebook. I guess I'd just always check how the company uses it beyond mere branding purposes.

The e. e. cummings one ... you could go either way, since cummings also did that. I'd go all lower case just because .. it makes sense? I would also go all lower case with deadmau5, since he *always* uses all lower case. More obvious example: iPhone.

I would capitalize Reddit, since that's what they're doing as well in, uh, corporate communication? see redditinc.com . Twitter, for example, also used all lower case in their logo, but not in official contexts (Twitter, Inc.). 1/

I've done all but two - I can't remember ever recording radio to cassette, and I've never paid with a check. I'm a millenial baby!
