I think we should keep both version consistent, whether lower or upper
case.  The uppercase version is probably more correct, but it's a
little bit weird to have it being the only upper case label in all
output, so I kept it lower case.

Indeed!  Fixed (using lowercase to match current output).

I don't think this one should be changed, vacuumlazy output is already
entirely different, and is way more verbose so keeping it as is makes
sense to me.
