I care because case insensitivity is something that Scheme has had for
a long time, and because of the confusion that case sensitivity
causes, especially when one is trying to discuss a program out loud.
I've lived in the case-sensitive Java world for several years, where
it's a pain to have a conversation about lines like this:

  Type type = new Type();

I don't want that to happen to Scheme.  And I don't want that to
happen to the many students who learn programming through Scheme.
Case is just not an interesting thing for people to have to pay
attention to in a programming language.
