Well, that's fair enough. I don't think that I can argue with that.
Seems like ignoreCase method is not necessary.

I would be a fan of adding a `string.compare(other, {ignoreCase = false,
unicode = false})` that purely works by character code/code point and is
required to return 1, 0, or -1. That would be easier to spec, and is more
generally useful when you're working with strings for computers, not people.

I would just create a collator outside the loop:
```js
const stringOne = "Matheus";
const manyStrings = ['robert', 'lucas', 'matheus'];
const {compare} = new

That's not a problem. For the "does this string match any in

This makes your method markedly less useful than `localeCompare`. It's
really useful to know not just
Hi,
I think you’re right, It could be simpler to do it like that.
I have checked “localeCompare”, it does compare case sensitive strings but it
doesn’t compare strings in an array and to do it, you will have to execute the
method as many times as strings in an array. By using ignoreCase
BTW, have you tried `string.localeCompare(other, null, {sensitivity:
"base"})` or `sensitivity: "accent"`?

Would it not be simpler to simply change the signature from
`function(value, arrayOfStrings)` to `function(...values)`?
I'd also suggest that a better, more general purpose formulation of
comparing a string against multiple values might be to use #match.
Something like:
```
const checkString =
Hi everyone,
ignoreCase - JavaScript proposal
It's a proposal to implement a new function to compare two strings but
without case sensitivity.
The proposal is bringing an important function, which is being used in
Java. Many times in my career I had to compare two strings but ignore case
10 matches
