Almost all products of all brands are in title case, including Apple Music, Apple Books etc. Why is "silicon" in lowercase? Perhaps someone has inside info... just curious.

6I’m voting to close this question because it asks “why Apple does something” is considered off-topic as described in the help center.– AllanCommented Jan 18, 2023 at 18:48

Mac mini is a product that doesn’t conform to title case. Apple doesn’t sell “silicon” per se. They sell Mac computers with processors powered by Apple silicon.– AllanCommented Jan 18, 2023 at 18:51

@Allan thanks, and I don't mind the question being closed as this is just curiosity. As for naming, it doesn't need to be a product to be in title case, it can also be a proprietary technology, like Alfa Romeo Twin Spark.– MartinCommented Jan 18, 2023 at 19:18

1It's like saying "Intel Xenon processors." Instead of using the word "processor" they opted (for whatever reason) to use "silicon." See the sub-title on this page. It gives you a perfect example of this usage.– AllanCommented Jan 18, 2023 at 19:28

Apple silicon is not a registered trademark, where the others are: https://www.apple.com/legal/intellectual-property/trademark/appletmlist.html.

I understand that, though Mac mini is a trademark and follows the same sentence case...– MartinCommented Jan 18, 2023 at 19:13
