301 redirects case sensitive?

While making a 301 redirect today, I realized it’s case-sensitive. I’m assuming this wasn’t on purpose?

I’ve had to make two versions of each redirect, like the example attached.

Most likely it is intentional.

Much of the Internet runs on unix-based environments, which means that most webservers and filesystems are case-sensitive. That means if you’re bringing over a website from another platform, chances are your origin requests are case-sensitive as well.
