We all should hate case insensitive file systems. I certainly do. But what do the masters think of them? Here is Torvalds: https://www.phoronix.com/news/Linus-Torvalds-Anti-Case-Fold There are times when I am downloading several web pages on the same subject and I don't have the inclination to give each saved page a unique and distinctive name. I will instead do this: Subject.html subject.html SUbject.html SuBjEcT.html etc. A trivial purpose but it can be important. -- Systemd: solving all the problems that you never knew you had.

There is a standardized Unicode algorithm for it, which is what Linux filesystems (those that support case insensitivity) implement. <https://www.unicode.org/faq/casemap_charprop.html#casemap>

Because Makefile is not the same as makefile? I've been burned by that, although that might be an argument for case insensitivity. Databases are another matter. SQL Server by default is case insensitive while DB2 is case sensitive. We always uppercased everything going into DB2 so we could find it again rather than messing around at runtime. SQL Sever is easier to deal with.

Consider the German "sharp s," which I cannot enter as UTF-8 here. But the lower case sharp s maps into TWO DIFFERENT upper case chars: <can't enter> and "SS," e.g. STRASSE or <can't enter>. There are special rules on case folding for thousands of Unicode chars and the "sharp s" example is one of the simplest.

I think It's usually CT these days. CAT is somewhat of an archaic usage. As for cats - I'm neither sterile nor female and I like cats.

Consider when you move a file from a POSIX filesystem, to one which is case insensitive, and you move it back. I've had digger.zip and DIGGER.ZIP because one verison once resided on an MSDOS partition. Issues arise when you interact with other systems which don't preserve case. Or archivers that may not. As for your file example though, you do demonstrate why one may choose upper vs lower case, Windows does allow that. But should they be *seperate* files? You are asking for trouble putting both files like that in one directory. I'd never do it. The system lets you do it, but you shouldn't. However, I agree with your comment about unicode. Treating upper and lower case letters as the same, leads to complicated rules, which may vary from system to system, and cause chaos. Case sensitivity, perhaps is the lesser of two evils here.
