Hi internals, I'm wondering why PHP 8 started warning about required parameters declared after optional ones, when this version is the one that also introduced named parameters, which can take advantage of this:
``` function test($a = 1, $b) { echo $a, $b; } test(b: 2); ``` > Deprecated: Required parameter $b follows optional parameter $a in /in/DmhYG on line 3 > 12 https://3v4l.org/DmhYG If I'm not mistaken, the introduction of this warning (January 2020 <https://externals.io/message/108052>) predates the introduction of named parameters (May 2020 <https://wiki.php.net/rfc/named_params>), which could explain why it would have temporarily made sense to introduce this warning. Shouldn't it be removed now, that it makes IMO full sense with named parameters to have required and optional parameters at arbitrary positions? Thank you for your time, — Benjamin
