Damn straight. I thought bcachefs was a modern filesystem? Why is it case insensitive? Huge red flag.

It isn't normally, but it, like e.g. Ext4, allows case insensitivity mostly for the sake of Wine.

But Wine could handle the case insensitivity though? NTFS is case sensitive.

It does, but having case insensitivity in the file system can get you better performance.

Utterly reasonable opinion. Case insensitive filesystems are just lazy programming.
