Case Sensitive: Making Sure Input is User Friendly

links:none on file
slides:none on file

Cluster runs on Kubernetes 1.17 and uses the Horizontal Pod Autoscaler v2beta2; Helm chart templates and CI/CD set a default of values.yaml = "cpu" which inexplicably fails while "CPU" works, causing three days of debugging. Switching the HPA resource to memory succeeds, a PR to accept lowercase CPU goes stale after a year, and the concrete takeaway is to make inputs case-insensitive or ensure docs and accepted values exactly match.
