I guess you haven't read later post.
You've also made a novice mistake.
array_filter() DO NOT delete elements, but creates new array.
array_delete() is another form of array_walk(), not array_filter().
See my posts.
Having a API for dedicated task is good thing.
Who would argue array_pop()/array_push() isn't needed?
