If you wish to enforce case sensitivity in projects which you control
then go ahead. Just don't try to enforce it on everybody else.
that thread was about the PHP core and NOT case-sensitive where you called
people "OCD sufferers" - so don't play stupid games here when everybody can
access the list archive or is knowing your attitude anyways - you have lost
that game
The fact that some people write "do_something" or "do_Something" or
"Do_Something" or even "DO_SOMETHING" and it points to a single function
because of case insensitivity does NOT cause a genuine problem - except in
the minds of a few nit-picking, anal retentive OCD sufferers. The REAL
problem occurs when you make those four mixtures of case mean point to
different functions which do different things.
If you cannot tell the difference between a perceived problem and a real
problem your attempts to shut me up will continue to fail.

and frankly people like you arguing about code consistency are fired here
from one the to the next because theri inability to write well cocumentend
and readable quality code at all and they are instead coding timebombs
I'm sorry, but reading code where the case of a word changes the meaning of
that word will make that code LESS readable, not MORE.
it's one thing when you write your private crap but from the point you want
your code used by somebody else you have to play with that rules
I repeat, if you want to enforce case sensitivity in those projects which
you control then go ahead, but don't try to enforce it on the whole
programming community.
