Some differences of opinion here might arise from the fact that simple enums act as constants, but enums with associated values seem (to me anyway) to function much more like subtypes with RTTI built in. lowerCamelCase makes sense for the former, but UpperCamelCase for the latter.

I love that Swift has a published API design guidelines at https://swift.org/documentation/api-design-guidelines.html, but one thing about it bugs me: the use of UpperCamelCase for cases. I know this ship has long sailed, but why didn't the team choose lowerCamelCase for these? The current style seems inconsistent and requires an “instances are lowerCamelCase, aside from Enums” clarification.
