I agree with this point. The sub class is a valid entity in its own

If they overwrite a parent class's method, then fine. Instance of
either class would have different parameters for the same named
method.
Its not about being "right". Acedemically Marcus changes are correct. The
question is just if we want to force this way of working onto PHP, or if it
makes more sense to make it optional.
I would say that if you want to use it in the "wrong" lenient way that
you need to mark your classes as such and not the other way around. This
might also have the effect that people see PHP as a better language
(because of the OO stuff is "correct" by default.
Or it will mean that the established user base gets ticked off and the
other people see PHP as just playing catch up to Java. Now is probably
the time to hire a consulting firm ;)
