I think you should use a different font. Otherwise we're soon in a
position where we can't abbreviate anything that starts with L and keep
using lower case throughout. That doesn't seem like a valid tradeoff to me.
There are plenty of fonts which have good visual distinction between l
and 1 and O and 0.
