Re: Breaking backwards compatibility - good or bad?

Q: "Can you name me one single problem where introducing
case-sensitivity was the solution?"

A: Consistency.

Inconsistency is not a "real" problem as it does not cause the program
to produce wrong results. The fact that you personally like all
variables and function names to be in one case or the other is nothing
but a personal view and should NOT be forced upon others.

The idea of consistency might be good in theory, but the fact that this
allows the SAME word to have DIFFERENT meanings just because of a
slight change in case is far more serious. But that's just my opinion.
