{{{

False
}}}
Here we can observe a contradiction. The `toLower` function does not alter
its argument, but `toUpper` does, which tells us that the character 1) has
the notion of case 2) it must be lower-cased. On the other hand, both
`isUpper` and `isLower` functions return `False` for `\9438` suggesting
that it has no notion of case.
Apparently, `\9438` is lower-cased and `\9412` is its upper-cased version
indeed:
{{{
λ> putStrLn "\9438"
ⓞ
λ> putStrLn "\9412"
Ⓞ
}}}
