The names of the directories are case-sensitive. This was intended as it simulates how file names are also case-sensitive in some file systems, and LINUX also has case-sensitve directory names. As such, the next directory lab could not be found as most probably, the directory had not been created. On the other hand, cd Lab resulted in a successful traversal.
The reason why cd cs2113t works was because only module code is case-insensitive as shown in the User Guide:
However, we are willing to accept the bug since we may have failed to adequately convey this difference.

As seen above, when changing directories, casing does not affect success.
However, as seen here, casing does affect success.
Would you want to perhaps check on the consistency changing directory result with respect to input's casing?
