The horror!

I find little more visually offensive than proper nouns starting with
a lower-case letter.


How do you feel about logos where everything is in all caps?

It's made even worse by the inconsistency that follows - on the main
Museum page, the text immediately refers to the "Museum" (sic.) and
not "museum" (sic.) which is in the main header just above it!


It's not inconsistency, since the typographic treatment of the logo does
not change the way the name is spelled.
