Is there a reason Federation IDs are case sensitive?

I created a feature request asking for federation IDs to be not case sensitive (at the request of my internal IT team) but I wanted to check in with the rest of you who might know better. Is there some reason that it would be good to have this field be case sensitive? I checked in with Workfront and their reply was "because we designed it this way." Which.... OK.... but is there a reason? I guess not? My feature request is at https://support.workfront.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/115003990533-SSO-Federation-ID-should-not-be-...

Possibly they don't want to have crossovers when it comes to names. I placed a request to allow nicknames to be used.
