Scots is its own language with its own writing system, people have been writing in Scots for centuries before the internet and it’s not just colloquial. Scottish English is seperate, being an actual dialect, but there is an English-Scots dialect continuum so finding the exact difference is hard
It’s simply linguistic evolution, and I find it interesting how the internet has shaped language. Writing on the internet tends to be very short and conversation-like, so if you want to get a point across there’s no need for a full stop. This meant, that when people put full stops at the end of messages on the internet, it started being seen as more formal and serious, which became a tone marker
Full stops are slowly becoming a separator instead of a terminator in colloquial chats, which I find interesting, since some scripts use an equivalent character like that
