Agreed this is a weird choice to me, but I'm also not surprised by weird 
choices via
php-fig (log level constants I'm looking at you)

We hear all the time how userland is more flexible and can change quicker - and 
yet here we see a potential built in class having a worse api because it wants 
to be compatible with an existing userland interface with the same bad api....
