The '::class' construct is done purely at compile time, based of the apparent classname passed in. It does not check the spelling of the actual class name, or even that the class exists e.g.

echo dAtEtImE::class;

Output is "dAtEtImE"


echo ThisDoesNotExist::class;

Output is "ThisDoesNotExist"

i.e. if you want var_dump(Datetime::class); to output a capital T, then spell it with a capital T.
