Yes, and therein lies the rub. For reasons i can't comprehend now, the parent dataset was created as case insensitive. Was i following someone's cookbook? Not unlikely. Here's the parent create from the zpool history:

zfs create -o utf8only=on -o normalization=formD -o snapdir=hidden -o casesensitivity=insensitive -o nbmand=on -o sharesmb=off -o atime=off vortex/fs1

thanks, all, for your time and advice

In my examples, i was creating *only *new files and directories.

Further investigation shows that any dataset i create w/o
specifying casesensitivity=sensitive during zfs create defaults to
"insensitive", although the pool itself is case sensitive.  Is this
intended behaviour and if so why?

What a drag ... live and learn, huh? :)
The default is to inherit from the parent dataset.  So, what options
are set on the parent?
