@aesthr@wandering.shop And "I want paris and Paris to mean the same and not want to deal with ten different inferior UI level simulations" would not be a valid use case? I'm always puzzled when people complain I'd not respect their use cases, when I have the feeling that the opposite is happening. :) But again, in real life, I'm fine with how it is. It's just interesting for me to exchange ideas and standpoints.
Btw: I don't think MS was 'lazy'. Case insensitivity brings additional complexity, right?

@aesthr@wandering.shop There was no brilliant additional effort that the Unix guys spent into filesystems to make them case sensitive, which the MS guys were not able to apply. It's just case sensitive (and even sensitive to various ways to encode the same character) because the Unix guys don't gave a shit at all.

@pino@social.cologne ok, you're clearly not getting it and I have better things to do that continuing this pointless argument.
