I have a Windows Registry entry edited to disable caps lock, as I find its functionality to be useless and do not want it enabled on my computer. I had no trouble with Arma2 picking up Caps Lock, but Arma3 doesn't pick it up at all.

Try to use Caps Lock key in Arma3.
Registry value to disable Caps Lock:

"Scancode Map"=hex:00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,02,00,00,00,00,00,3a,00,00,00,00,00
Value to reset Keyboard Layout:

I dont know what you mean, if you disabled caps-lock what are you expect? its disabled and end of story.
As I stated, this worked fine in ArmA2. I don't want to lose a key, I just don't want to type in all caps.
Yes, it works in Arma3 with default registry value.
Forgot to specify, when I say it worked in Arma2, I'm specifically referring to it being bound in the userconfig of a mod (ACRE). TeamSpeak 3 is also able to pick up the key with it disabled, without typing in all caps.
Sorry to say so, but registry tweaking is unsupported and the changes you make are causing the problem. There is no way to fix this for us as it works well with default registry settings.
