Proposal to change use for instance of Q43091 orthography

@Nikki@Manu1400 I am pinging you because you are the most recent editors to this property who have made changes other than label/description translations. Can we change this property to be for instances of orthography (Q43091) instead of languages? It does not really make sense to say a language uses capitalization for something when this really has to do with an adaptation of a writing system for a language (and one which uses a writing system with capital letters at that). Some languages are not even written often at all. We could even add a constraint that items with this property require a statement that says the writing system uses one of the relative handful of alphabets which have capital letters.
