The problem comes primarily from systems that allow identifiers (or other semantically meaningful concepts like format strings) to differ only by case. This could be considered a side-quest of the naive implementation of case-sensitivity.
"Case-sensitive but identifiers cannot differ only by case" would be a reasonable compromise.
"Martin" and "martin" are obviously not different names. Martin may be more correct, but allowing "martin" as a separate name is worse.
