likely causes the circuit to momentarily open, and then close again, changing the caps lock state. The lock keys don't repeat function when the circuit is closed like some other keys, the circuit cycle of open->close changes the state... so in normal situations in his case likely its in a closed state, therefore engaging caps-lock, hitting it breaks the state (open) before shorting again (closed), changing the caps-lock state to off. The it's merely that hitting the key itself (since normally the key depress will close the circuit) has no effect because the circuit is already closed.
