Would be awesome if that's no longer true and everything can be case-sensitive.

Also was never aware Windows could be made properly case-sensitive. Please PM me the link showing this?
You can't make 'Windows' case sensitive but theoretically you can make NTFS case sensitive.
Filenames are Case Sensitive on NTFS Volumes

Its the legacy Win32 API calls that are the fly in the ointment, to get around it in Windows one could install the Subsystem for UNIX-based Applications - but I think MS dropped support for it.
