 #### Available token attributes {#adding-patterns-attributes}
 
-The available token pattern keys are uppercase versions of the

+The available token pattern keys correspond to a number of

 rule-based matching are:

+<Accordion title="Does it matter if the attribute names are uppercase or lowercase?">
+
+No, it shouldn't. spaCy will normalize the names internally and
+`{"LOWER": "text"}` and `{"lower": "text"}` will both produce the same result.
+Using the uppercase version is mostly a convention to make it clear that the
+attributes are "special" and don't exactly map to the token attributes like
+`Token.lower` and `Token.lower_`.
+
+</Accordion>
+
+<Accordion title="Why are not all token attributes supported?">
+
+spaCy can't provide access to all of the attributes because the `Matcher` loops
+over the Cython data, not the Python objects. Inside the matcher, we're dealing
+with a [`TokenC` struct](/api/cython-structs#tokenc) – we don't have an instance
+of [`Token`](/api/token). This means that all of the attributes that refer to
+computed properties can't be accessed.
+
+The uppercase attribute names like `LOWER` or `IS_PUNCT` refer to symbols from
+the
+[`spacy.attrs`](https://github.com/explosion/spaCy/tree/master/spacy/attrs.pyx)
+enum table. They're passed into a function that essentially is a big case/switch
+statement, to figure out which struct field to return. The same attribute
+identifiers are used in [`Doc.to_array`](/api/doc#to_array), and a few other
+places in the code where you need to describe fields like this.
