The autocapitalize attribute is standard HTML5, but the default behavior when it isn't explicitly set differs across browsers.
In particular we have some users using iPads, and in Safari, autocapitalize is on by default.

Support goes back to iOS Safari 5 (2012); Chrome 43 (2015); Opera 30 (2015); but not until Firefox 111 (2023). However the Firefox non-support is harmless as it defaults to autocapitalize off anyway.
any textareas that could benefit as well?
textarea
Good question. I think there are probably a few -- but the only one that sticks out as an obvious candidate is echo_proofing_textarea.
echo_proofing_textarea
I approve. Thanks!
