The issue is that QR's alphanumeric segments are uppercase only, and while browsers will automatically lowercase the protocol and domain name, you'll have to either have all your paths be uppercase or automatically lowercase paths. On top of that when someone scans the code it will likely be presented with an uppercase URL (if it doesn't automatically open in a browser) and that should alert anyone that doesn't already know that uppercase domains are equivalent to lowercase domains.

Ideally QR codes would have had a segment to encode URIs more efficiently (73-82 characters depending on how the implementation decided to handle the "unreserved marks"), but that ship has long sailed.

Many QR code readers will auto-lowercase URLs that are encoded in alphanumeric encoding. The rest will recognize uppercase URLs just fine. Alphanumeric encoding was basically made for URLs.

The QR alphanumeric input encoding does not include basic URL query string characters like '?' '&' '='

I've been putting URL in QR for like a decade, mixed case and query string included. How has it never been an issue?

Because you used bytes mode, not alphanumeric mode
