As discussed in this answer, one can typically disable small caps with \textup{}. This appears to be broken with the newtx package. How can I restore the desired behaviour?
Works with Computer Modern:
\documentclass{standalone}\begin{document}\textsc{abc\textup{abc}}\end{document}
Broken with newtxttext:
\documentclass{standalone}\usepackage{newtxtext}\begin{document}\textsc{abc\textup{abc}}\end{document}
Desired output (for example, with the older txfonts package, which works as expected but has other deficiencies that newtx is supposed to fix.)
Other nested font selection like \textit{\textbf{abd}} seem to work fine.
Update:
As pointed out by @UlrikeFischer, one can use \textulc{} to "escape" from the small caps, but then I noticed another issue when using the largesc option. Nested \textbf{\textsc{abc}} is italics rather than bold. (Note: this works without the largesc option):
\documentclass{standalone}\usepackage[largesc]{newtxtext}\begin{document}\textbf{\textsc{abc}}\end{document}
