Freecodecamp: Tests don't check tags' case sensitivity in "Basic HTML and HTML5: Inform with the Paragraph Element"

Describe your problem and - if possible - how to reproduce it

If you use uppercase P tags in this challenge, tests will output:

Make sure your p element has a closing tag.

That took me a good few minutes of tinkering with the code here and there, refreshing the page and trying different placeholder texts to realize that I accidentally typed an uppercase <P> in the opening tag and autocompleted that with TAB to </P>.

Solution: either adjust autocompletion to convert tags to lowercase or include check for case sensitivity of tags in tests.

I'd like to tackle this!

I am having difficulty getting the dev environment going, so I'm gonna wait until you guys push the next env, which according to the forum is next week? If someone else wants to tackle it before that, im cool with it.
