I couldn't find this info in the Filesystem documentation, so I thought I'd ask here: is equality comparison between path objects case-insensitive on Windows?

Two paths are compared using lexicographical comparison, it says in the docs. Looking at the implementation, it is case-sensitive lexicographical order. BTW, the documentation only points "Case sensitivity is a property of the pathname itself, and not the platform" So, IMO it is correct to assume filesystem::path is case-sensitive regardless OS.
