Q: What does not matter for links mean?
A1) That URL's work no matter case.
A2) That it is not a problem to get case correct.

You get one guess.

It is even allowed to read the next paragraph that

#People typing in URL's manually are supposed to know that
#while protocol and hostnames are not case sensitive then
#the other parts of URL's may be.
