\caps changes the font shape to caps, but if the font does not have such
a shape, this has no effect. \smallCaps is a work around: it changes
the input string to upper case, with bigger font for characters that
were already upcased. So they're different things. \caps should be
prefered if the font has the appropriate shape.
