As SQL is generally case insensitive, it is quite surprising to most
people that GUC units are not.
We have had this discussion before, I even submitted a patch to make
them case insensitive. In retrospect I was wrong to submit that patch.
SQL may be case insensitive but units are not. MB != Mb != mb , I don't
think we should encourage in any way for users to do the wrong thing.
