What was the argument against '::' again?

BTW, "::" is out the question (yes, I did try it). It created ambiguity
in the case of calling a function in a namespace and calling a method of
a class in a namespace:

echo a::b::c();

The above can either mean "call function c in namespace b under
namespace a" or "call static method c of class b under namespace a".
Since this cannot be determined, "::" cannot be used.
