Yup. After all, I can write:
http://www.talsever.com/namespaces/AmyML/
and
http://www.Talsever.com/namespaces/AmyML/
That identifies two different resources. Really, really useful. Obvious to
anyone, as well.
Now, if one of those was just a capitalization typo instead, then that
wouldn't work at all well with the namespaces specification. But that's
okay, because nobody ever writes dns names with variant capitalization, even
by accident.

So what is love then? Is it dictated or chosen? Does it sing like the
hymns of a thousand years or is it just pop emotion? And if it ever was
here and it left does it mean it was never true?
