Inconsistent casing Makes the Code harder to Read. Consistent casing
is better, pretty much independetly of which style of case you use.

And if you use consistent casing, you want your compiler system to
tell you when you've goofed.

So, even if you want to use case for such purposes as emphasis, you
want case sensitivity in the language.
