I'm not sure I follow that reasoning. In all fairness I might be biased as I try to consistently use "LLDB" unless I'm referring tot the binary or the prompt. Ignoring things like `(lldb)`, `lldb-` and `lldb.`, it looks like the docs favor "LLDB" as well.

```
$ rg 'LLDB' | wc -l
     605
$ rg 'lldb' | awk '!/\(lldb\)/ && !/lldb\./ && !/lldb-/' | wc -l
     362
```

Personally I'd lean towards more consistency.
