In general, usernames should NOT be case sensitive, that way leads madness.
Linux user names are case sensitive. I tend not to argue with basis unix/linux implementations, those are mostly well thought through by experts. This is from before the time that 'idiot' companies started using email addresses for logins, so it is easier (to track users across platforms), after a decade or so these idiots are starting to realize this has not been to smart, forcing them to introduce 2fa work-arounds. Having a separate undisclosed username already is a form of 2fa. This is what you get when you use a hammer on a screw instead of a screwdriver.
