Sorry, but sometimes features take time either due to technical reasons (variance was difficult to get right this way), or due to disagreements in voters. Just as we added scalar and return types in 7.0 but nullable types came only in 7.1, I think it's fine to add pure intersection types in 8.1 and add the ability to mix unions and intersections in 8.2. Is it _ideal_? No, but I'd rather wait than rush something in. There has been a lot of disagreement in this proposal, and I personally don't feel comfortable including this in any form for 8.1 because of this. I would rather wait, and waiting has the advantage that we can get a cohesive proposal for it to work with all unions and intersections, and not just a special case. -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: https://www.php.net/unsub.php
