I tend to think as well they should be lowercase. Because the full day
names start with lowercase.

But the already existing lv_LV locale has the same weirdness.

In CLDR, there is no information yet for day names for ltg. But there is
vor lv (and the abday currently proposedfor the ltg_LV locale are
written in the same style as those in the existing lv_LV locale):

https://github.com/unicode-org/cldr/blob/main/common/main/lv.xml#L1738

    <dayWidth type="short">
    	<day type="sun">Sv</day>
    	<day type="mon">Pr</day>
    	<day type="tue">Ot</day>
    	<day type="wed">Tr</day>
    	<day type="thu">Ce</day>
    	<day type="fri">Pk</day>
    	<day type="sat">Se</day>
    </dayWidth>

These are also 2 letter abbreviations with the first letter upper case.
But the lv_LV locale has

abday    "Sv";"P ";/
         "O ";"T ";/
         "C ";"Pk";/
         "S "

which is not identical to what is in CLDR.

So probably I should sync this part of the lv_LV locale to CLDR

abday    "Sv";"Pr";/
         "Ot";"Tr";/
         "Ce";"Pk";/
         "Se"

and in the ltg_LV locale use

abday    "Sv";"Pi";/
         "Ūt";"Tr";/
         "Ca";"Pk";/
         "Sa"

for consistency ...
