# Here you are entirely too nice [as usual ;-) ]. Auxiliary
# headers should be viewed as derived from RFC822 header rules and
# any case-sensitivity in recognizing field names is simply wrong.

All the news related software I've written is compliant with all the
news related RFCs. The point that something can be done does not always
make it correct.

What is the real reason for the differences ? This is aside from the
software issues. What is the reason they have to be different here ?
I am pointing out an inconsistency I found that really needn't be.
