I understand what you're saying, but it's not really in violation of
that principle. bash is still doing everything case-sensitively, and
everything besides ranges works as expected. The only principle it's
violating is that the character encoding is ordered ABC...abc, like it
is in ASCII. This is tempting to believe, but is obviously a false
principle as evidenced by this bug, and people should be educated about
that.
