Arne is the one saying that the path part of a URL is case sensitive, so no disagreement there.

You misinterpreted Arne's remark. He's saying that the user needn't worry about case because the link already has the correct case. It doesn't matter that the file system is case sensitive because you aren't typing in the file name, is what he said. You just proved Arne correct, Gene.
