Not at all!  I find this extremely helpful, and the length of the
message about the workarounds etc does confirm to me that, while you
can and do find good coping strategies, case sensitivity _is_ a
substantial bother here.  Just as your previous message about screen
readers and indentation showed, instead, that Python's significant
whitespace is _not_ a substantial bother as I had thought it might be.

Thanks again for your very welcome input!
