Mac has been (at least by default) case-insensitive for a very long time, back to the original HFS at least, and probably its predecessor MFS too, though I'm not sure on that one.

I thought that I had used Macs with HFS+ filesystem that was case-sensitive a long time ago, but I'm not 100% sure anymore.

You might've. It's a format-time option and has been for as long as I've used OS X.
