As this definitely is a BC (applications stop running) I think we should go
through a phase were it throws a warning instead of aborting, i.e. changing it
to
mysqli_report(MYSQLI_REPORT_ERROR);
first and change it to throw an exception after a grace period.
This would be in line with most other newly introduced exceptions for the
default configuration.
Plus this would most certainly help people who host other people's websites who
want to upgrade to PHP 8.x.
PS: IMHO The same should be (retroactively) done with round() and friends!
