Umm, This is a mere information. (Since you dislike, this may be a noise.?)
As for upper/lower.
It does not change, even if uses which locale in us Japanese.
(there is nothing with the alphabet)
Then, In spite of using a small letter and a capital letter properly clearly.
As for sorting.
It has a difference, if sorting of a dictionary is desired. However, each is the not
Japanese order of the JIS X 4061:1996(Collation of Japanese character string),
probably. but, I think that LOCAL=C is clear as a sorting of a dictionary.
It seems that selection is good by the situation well.
