Perhaps cinching down the cap tight would put too much of a squeeze on the scalp…Lord knows seniors don’t always have the best blood circulation, and they can’t afford to starve the blood supply anywhere.

Heck, I’ve seen these same old men wear stocking caps the same way during cold winter months - in a crumpled heap perched on top of their heads, rather than pulled down to their ears.

My father does that, but the hat isn’t a crumpled heap, it’s pointing straight up (hard to do with some knit hats). He does it to embarrass his children.
Baseball caps are to block the sun when catching a fly ball. The long bill is supposed to help that.

See, I reckon the caps those guys are wearing are what I (and my 12yo stepson) call Trucker’s Hats, not baseball caps at all. They have some logo on the front that’s as stiff as a board, and airmesh everywhere. They look even stupider pulled all the way down, as the stupid badge on front sticks up like a stupid little peak.
True baseball caps are hemispherical and any badges they do sport are soft.
