Research direction
Start by locating the TypeScript definition and data path for SubredditInfo.allAllowedPostTypes and compare its PostType values with the official PostType documentation. Confirm that the returned values use lowercase strings such as "text", then add or update coverage for this field so the corrected casing is verified.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
The official documentation shows that strings with an alias of PostType are supposed to be in lowercase, but testing reveals that in SubredditInfo.allAllowedPostTypes, they are stored in uppercase (e.g., "TEXT" instead of "text").
See the below screenshot; I simply logged all the PostType strings in SubredditInfo.allAllowedPostTypes to the console.
In my code, I've worked around this by casting the PostType to a string and calling toLowerCase() on it. Nevertheless, I felt I should report this bug.
