I really dislike the capitalization in the output. I think using the lowercased form when referring to Nmap's output but using the capitalized form when talking about the actual protocol is fine (and the best option I can see). I would also prefer the idea of using all lowercase in the book to capitalization in Nmap's output if you want to pick between these other ideas.
I concur with Kris, the lowercase acronyms - while grammatically incorrect - look nicer. Though I may be biased because I'm so used to the service names always being lowercase. And technically speaking, wouldn't TCP would have to be capitalized as well?
