Why are capital letters important?
Capital letters are a convention, or custom, that help readers become oriented in a text. The first word in a sentence begins with a capital letter. To an experienced reader in English, in the first word in a sentence, the capital letter signals that a new complete thought is being started with that new sentence. Capital letters also signal something special or unique. We capitalize the first letter of unique people, places, things, and ideas. While there is no inherent reason that we should use capital letters to signal these ideas, there are agreed-upon rules or "conventions" (customs) that we use to make reading faster, smoother, and more meaningful.

These two instances here are examples of when to use or not use the comma as punctuation for this word. When the word is used as a substitute for the phrase 'on the other hand', it is most often followed by a comma.
