 [PowerShell is as case-insensitive as possible.](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/microsoft.powershell.core/about/about_case-sensitivity?view=powershell-7.3) This means `$MyInvocation` works just the same as `$mYinVoCAtiOn` among other things. Coming from a Unix background and preferring some consistency I like to pretend it is case-sensitive so in this repo I'll strive for that but it's worth keeping in mind. Especially since **the Microsoft docs use case a lot** in variable and cmdlet names.
