The Caps Lock button on MacBooks knows if you really want to press it. (alien.top)

Try to hit your CAPS Lock button as if it's a mistake and see what happens. Mine is reading my mind.

The difference between unintentional hit and an intentional one is very slight, but it knows :)

Take it a step further. Remap your capslock button to another key and never have this problem again.

I use karabiner to make the caps lock another meta key like shift or Command. Pushing it makes the ijkl keys into up left down right. Plus more.
