That syntax was what someone suggested on the prior discussion. I personally dislike it because I have used PHPDoc syntax of `type[]` for so long and would rather see us stick with that. But if I'm honest about it, debate over syntax is probably just bikeshedding at this point. The more important question IMO is, can we actually implement typed arrays to enough voter's satisfaction and w/o a significant performance penalty? -Mike
