But no filesystem I am aware of is actually homoglyph insensitive.
Case insensitive filesystems picked one arbitrary form of intuition (and not even the .oat obvious one) in one language (English) and baked that into the OS at a somewhat deep level.
You say "human intuition" - are those using different writing systems nonhuman then?
