I have heard heard the recommendation to remove the caps when charging before, but, it was many years ago. I suspect that it is an "old wives tale". No battery manufacturer that I know of requires it and neither do any of the electric forklift manufacturers that I deal with. As had been said, It probably does more harm than good.
