I've written a new draft RFC to address the NULL coercion problems:

I give up.
Don't give up. You have my Yes vote.
Imo, the RFC:
- fixes real upgrade problem (very important),
- improves consistency in a better way than the solution introduced in 8.1.
- does not change strict_types behavior
Some people don't care with what arguments their functions are called
with. As long as the value can be coerced to the expected type the
function will do what it is supposed to do. Other people have
strict_types. All people don't want to be forced to modify a working code.
So, this is another "battle" between strict and non-strict camps. I'd
like to see which is the majority these days. I hope that even some
strict-code proponents can see this makes sense.
