 ## Case sensitivity
 
-Code search is case-insensitive. Searching for `True` will include results for _uppercase_ `TRUE` and _lowercase_ `true`. You cannot do case-sensitive searches. Regular expression searches (e.g. for `[t][H][i][S]`) are also case-insensitive, and thus would return `This`, `THIS` and `this` in addition to any instances of `tHiS`.
+Code search is case-insensitive. Searching for `True` will include results for _uppercase_ `TRUE` and _lowercase_ `true`. You can do case-sensitive searches by using a regular expression with case insensitivity turned off, for example `(?-i)True`.

Subject: [PATCH 2/2] Note that case insensitivity is the default

Saying "code search is case-insensitive" then saying "you can do
case-sensitive searches" can seem confusing. Make it less confusing by
noting that case insensitivity is only the default behavior.
