That's how we started out. That said, the uppercase completion and search in IDEs makes it so very convenient to go with uppercase first then lower case. It also avoid some cases where it becomes a bit unreadable, such as the last letter of the acronym being the same as the first letter of the next part. Using the same for both acronyms and initialisms makes the rule easier to understand and explain.
