Jeremiah 23:6 reference "B" should probably be written using a lower case instead of a capitalized letter. :)

This is in reference to Jeremiah 23:6 in the online Scriptures on LDS.org.

It's true that the "B" appears to be in uppercase, unlike all other footnotes. Technically, it is indeed written using a lowercase letter, as can be verified by examining the HTML. But that footnote appears within a phrase "THE LORD OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS" that is styled in ALL CAPS, and so that HTML styling affects the footnote as well.

The same thing happens with the "A" in Exodus 3:14, with a footnote to the phrase "I AM THAT I AM" and I imagine it happens a few other places, too.

A similar more subtle problem happens with the "C" in Exodus 9.29, with a footnote to the word "LORD"; in this case, the footnote is styled with small caps, and the "c" is smaller than a capital C, but larger than the other lowercase "c" footnotes.
