Oohh, great testing @HiuKwok ! Thanks for sharing here.
>Just a quick question what you mean by remove the length( ) mean? Would
you mind to specify more on that?
Sure. I think there could be a possibility to fix the issue by addressing
how the length of the lower'ed/upper'ed text is used
https://github.com/apache/commons-lang/blob/590f90889bf61a5570bd98b78e73410a07d7410b/src/main/java/org/apache/commons/lang3/StringUtils.java#L5603
So maybe there could be another way to work around the way we use the
strings lengths, and avoid the exception.
