Default Why is it incorrect to capitalize the seasons?

GTS is right - only proper nouns are capitalized. Sometime in the distant
past the grammar gods decided that months are proper nouns but not seasons,
so it's not correct to capitalize them.

wrong with it? isn't capitalization of a word a way to let people know that
the word is being stressed? can someone please let me know what they think of
it?
