I mean, have your ASIS program do the fixup:
MCR ASIS_FIXUP/INPUT=MY_FILE.ADA
creating the new version with normalized capitalization (matching the
first instance).
Whether that gets checked back in anyplace is up to the human.
The human goal here is to make _each_ identifier have consistent
capitalization, not to pick and choose certain identifiers for
the treatment.
