As a native Portuguese speaker, I can tell you that it is NOT normal to capitalize “Hoje” at the end or in the middle of a sentence. The same is true for “today" in English. Thus, I think these variations of capitalisation are bugs. A similar bug was true when the days of the week were not capitalised in pt_PT, but they should. Apple fixed that bug, but in the meantime the governments of Portugal and Brazil tried to come together concerning their “spelling differences” and then decided that the days of week should always be spelled in low case, even in “pt_Pt”. So there you go! A fixed bug became a bug again.
