Would changing the operator case affect tooling?
Tooling will acomodate to specification. Sooner or later.
It is harder with people. I am doing regular checks how we are doing with transition to SPDX ids in Fedora. Most of the
errors are in case sensitivity of operators. There is no tooling that can craft the license string for a package. There
are some assisting tools, but at the end human write the license string. And they are not SPDX specification experts -
so they often write and/or.

Well the specification can enumerate. I.e. say that allowed operators are "AND OR WITH" with lowercase variants "and or
with". Nothing else. It is simple :)
