if you look for a file you type the first letters for the file explorer to jump to the matching name. Retype to jump to the next fitting entry. If you don’t know about this, you can put your string in the search field. If you don’t know about this, you can sort by metadata like file size or date of last change.
It is a non problem.
Also most workplaces tend to develop a file naming convention, either explicitly or implicitly.
But do I type ‘ImportantFile’, or ‘importantfile’?
As I understand it, if I searched for either of these strings in a case sensitive file system, I would not find a file called ‘IMPORTANTFILE’.
At best, a case sensitive file system makes naming conventions more complex. At worst , it obfuscates files. I just can’t imagine a scenario where it would be helpful. Do you really see a need to have a file called ‘aaaAaa’ and a totally separate one called ‘aaAaaa’?

The search string is case insensitive. The file name isnt.
So you will find all of them.
