You make a good point.
But, the typest can see that he/she is typing all in caps just as the shouter can hear he is shouting.
Both continue with their offensive acts when they could stop.
My young daughter would be clueless.
Most of the individuals we are talking about do not fall in the same Category as my daughter since they are aware on some level of what they are doing but have made the choice to continue with their behaviour.
