Yes, VB and MonoBasic are supposed to be case insensitive. I recall reading on the
MBAS status page, however, that some case sensitivity issues do still exist in
MonoBasic.
As far as I know, the MonoBasic folks are working to remove the case sensitivities
from the language, however, they do exist and are an artifact of MBAS's C-Sharp
legacy. Unfortunately, I don't know any more than that. Hopefully someone can clear
the waters a bit more.

Visual Basic is supposed to be case insensitive, isn't it?
