In which Ubuntu and gnome-disks-utility version are you running? Gnome disks does not give me an error message when formatting a FAT32 partition with the labels being lower case. Tried mixed case, and all lower case. None of them gave me an error message. Tested in Ubuntu Eoan Ermine with gnome-disks-utility 3.32.1-1ubuntu1.

FAT is the default for a new partition, but the default example label is mixed case. This means just going on recommendation, it's not going to work out, and the user will get an error message. A better user experience would be to simply tell the user that their label will be made upper case, and ask them to confirm with yes/no. Or just do it without asking TBH because I think upper-casing it by default is a pretty harmless thing.
