I mean, a lot of the new features are self contained, depending on how you view it, and some of them are also small. Like array_is_list could have gone into PHP 8.0.2 or 8.0.3 release and not wait for PHP 8.1.0 release? (Vote ended on 2021-01-20 and was merged on 2021-01-21)
Just want to make it clear for me how the rules are understanded by internal devs so I know better. If it's not an agreement, how can we clarify them better? Regards, Alex
