Case-sensitive matches would make things worse, because case in English is used for multiple things. For example, "Borders close due to fighting" would erroneously match your filter, and erroneously not match one looking for just "borders".
I imagine similar problems get much worse with strongly-inflected languages, because either the search engine must be smart about inflections, or you need multiple filters to match every possible conceivable inflection.
