That’s called a workaround. No end user should have to rely on a workaround as a solution to a bug; and make no mistake, it’s a bug.
Sounds like a feature to me
But whose bug is it? Really, Git origins have it tied to Linux development.
Case sensitivity, or the lack thereof, on a filesystem is opinionated. That's the real issue and is not a bug.
My point is that the claim in the comic and in other comments that this corrupts your repo or loses work simply isn't true.
