Well, practice says there are no such cases...

        for (int cp = Character.MIN_CODE_POINT; cp <
Character.MAX_CODE_POINT; cp++) {
            int c1 = Character.charCount(cp);
            int c2 = Character.charCount(Character.toUpperCase(cp));
            int c3 = Character.charCount(Character.toLowerCase(cp));
            if (c1 != c2 ||
                c1 != c3) {
                System.out.println(String.format(Locale.ROOT,
                    "%d %d %d",
                    c1, c2, c3));
            }
        }
