[Yum-devel] parsePackages() vs matchPackageNames()

It's either too late or night or I'm losing my mind:

For cases where matching case insensitively nor matching against a
subset of packages from any given sack are not at issue why are we using
packages.parsePackages() vs just using sackobject.matchPackageNames()

Specifically in the cases of:

install()
remove()
update()

I don't remember having this conversation before so I'm thinking some of
it just legacy hang-around. I know why parsePackages exists - it's so we
can case insensitive matches - but we're never going to do that for
update/install/remove so that doesn't matter. 

Am I losing my mind?
