If I read that correctly, 33069549 is the inode, both files have the
same inode? Is that on a Mac? On FreeBSD, both files would be created
with a different inode unless maybe one has some file deduplication
enabled at the filesystem level:

$ touch Homework HOMEWORK
$ ls -li | grep -i homework
344941451 -rw-r--r--   1 on    csimstaff            0 Mar  9 16:50 HOMEWORK
344941448 -rw-r--r--   1 on    csimstaff            0 Mar  9 16:50 Homework
$ 

Bests,
