That is so funny Dakie. In order to respond to your excellent point, I have to use a French word. jeje 
- touche an expression borrowed from French used 1)to admit that an opponent in an argument has made a good point 2)when someone has said a good comeback line
I'm afraid I don't have a reason. I'm sure a native will have better insight. There are just some words, like months, days of the week, nationalities, etc. that are not capitalized in Spanish. Sorry I can't be of more help.

... and in German, all nouns are capitalized. Every language has its rules and customs.
