I believe this has been proven. It's because capital letters all have the same shape whereas lower case letters do not. So your brain can take shortcuts to reading lower case but cannot with upper case.

Also most if not all editors will highlight SQL keywords so it's probably not too hard to discern SQL commands and everything else in modern day.
