in thread uc and German eszett "ß"

I think fc and //i should have the same inner semantics.

They do. That's literally the point of the message to which you replied.

Anyway this was already solved on another level ...

I wasn't proposing a solution; I was contradicting the claim that «fc is the only acceptable solution for comparing "case insensitive strings".»

    my point was: if its the same, there is only one way

    > That's literally the point ...

    Let's agree to agree.

      I'm not sure why you mention this since regex matches and comparisons using fc are very much not the same thing?! You even said as much yourself a few posts up ("//i doesn't help in our case since we needed hash-keys").

      Let's agree to agree.

      You want to disagree with the author of a post about what the post means... ok. How very special of you.

      Misread :(
