The current requirement of PHP is that only variable names are
case-sensitive. What I am doing is arguing against the proposal that
function names also be made case-sensitive for no other reason than "to
bring it into line with other languages".

I will never, ever agree that case matters. It was only introduced in
the first place because those stupid unix programmers didn't know any
better. Bungling amateurs!
