It's just that we have had a stylistic convention of introducing
parameters in the prose. Personally, I like this way, because it
often makes it easier to see how the paramaters relate to each other
and to the overall purpose of the function. Capitalizing them was
just a way of making them stand out as parameters; the doxygenation is
just to make them stand out in a markup-y way instead.
-K, who can read @param-style docs but is not a fan :-)
