I have a feeling that this goes against the recent trend of not
mucking with the expectation of the users on their pagers, if I
recall correctly the arguments for dropping S from the default given
to an unconfigured LESS environment variable.

It's just missing an explanation.

(That's -I, not -i, because it ought to work even when the pattern
contains capital letters.)

Spot on.  The change, especially with "-I", makes sense.

Except that it was not tested with -I. If you change it that way and it
stops working on Windows, it's useless to me.

Ciao,
Johannes
