AFAIK, SQL says that an non-quoted identifier such as Foo is treated as

Thank you very much for the complete explanation, Stephan.
These seem to be complaining that there's already a table, view, index,

case that's assuming that it'll preserve case rather than fold?
That's what Josh pointed out. I totally missed that.
Many thanks,
