This is true, but I'm not sure if I trust users to preserve case in case-insensitive filenames when copying files around, possibly at some point passing through something like a web server that may apply case normalization. Sort of like timestamps on files, they're handy for things like synchronization, but I hesitate before relying on them as a primary source of truth for anything mission critical.
