Really? I'd definitely love to see it for class and function names. Have you ever tried to deploy or develop an application with a team on different operating systems, and had the entire code puke because someone accidentally did casing wrong on a class name and the autoloader barfed trying to load the file on a case-sensitive operating system? I work with many developers using silly Mac OS X and it's case insensitive file names. We deal with someone fat-fingering a class name on a regular basis.

then you are missing staging/CI servers on Linux to catch the problem.

not the language is silly, the developers are. Why C doesn't forbid out of range accesses on arrays. Is the language silly?

Best, Andrey
