Don't you need case sensitivity for this part?

On a system that's case retaining but not case sensitive, wouldn't "pr" autocomplete to "Projects"?

No, MacOS doesn’t do that. `cat Foo` and `cat foo` will both work, but only the first one will tab complete if the file is called `Foo`.

zsh tab-completed both just fine, preserving the case in both. I’d have preferred it corrected the case, but meh.
