WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY? |

| In so many free models, and in the Roblox Wiki, (NO DON'T GET ME WRONG, I DON'T USE FREE MODELS) they all use Workspace. |

| ^Legacy support. It was the old preferred method so they leave it since many scripts use it. At some point they might depreciate it though. |

"In so many free models, and in the Roblox Wiki"
Because those wiki articles were originally written before it was deprecated. I shouldn't need to explain to you why asking why it's used in free models is a dumb question either. |

| I don't understand why they made it "workspace" when they could be more consistent with "Workspace". |

| Because they believe that standard environment variables should be lowercase, classes and class members should be uppercase. |
