...
Capitalization in .SS sections across pages (and sometimes even
within a single page) is wildly inconsistent. Make it consistent.
Capitalize first word in heading, but otherwise use lower case,
except where English usage (e.g., proper nouns) or programming
language requirements (e.g., identifier names) dictate otherwise.

where English usage dictates that. Otherwise, use
lowercase throughout.

The tendency in English, as prescribed in style guides like
Chicago MoS, is towards removing hyphens after prefixes
