as "o.k." or, as proposed, "O.K." seems rooted in American english.
If you were Chinese and only spoke Mandarin and had no knowledge that o.k. were a positive, what would be the point of writing o.k.? Or O.K.?
As far as o.k. goes, I've always felt feeling o.k. is o.k., but feeling good is better than feeling o.k. Having an o.k. meal will suffice,
but having a good (or better) meal is preferable.
Then again, I am assuming that a Belt o.k. represents an okay, and that just may not be o.k.
Also, if someone writes it wrong, it may also come out representing Oklahoma, and while I have no positive OR negative
experiences with Ok., someone surely has had negative experiences with that state and this may in fact inadvertently affect the... process.
O.K. is O.K. but only seems adequate at best. The Belts may be missing the boat on this and not aiming the bar high enough. I mean, not even an A-O.K.?
I say write BEST, or CHOCOLATE ICE CREAM, or BACH or TOUMANI DIABATE or something really very much more positive
than the seemingly mediocre "o.k." to possibly achieve the very best of what this pen/tweak/theory has to offer.
And while someone is at it, why not >>>?
If you're going to put that positive vibe to work, work it all the way!
