Hard disagree. I don't understand why anyone would want case insensitive.

Am I the only one who doesn't go around mindlessly capitalizing letters? Do people find it too difficult to capitalize things?

Do you want case insensitive passwords too?

If I type X I mean X and only X. Uppercase letters are different letters, just like X and Y are different letters.

Uppercase letters are different letters

No, they're different glyphs, they'd still be alphabetized the same way as X and x are the same letter

It's less about me randomly capitalizing letters and more about me not remembering whether or not what I'm looking for had capitals or not.
