Not completely, because checker may be smart enough to return "true" for
third party files.

<?php
set_strict_type_checker(function ($class_name, $function_nume,
$arg_num,$expected_type, $value, $file, $line) {
   if (!my_own_file($filename)) {
     return true;
   }
   ...
   return false;
});
include("index.php");
?>

And you won't have to modify each file in your project adding
declare(strict_types=1).

Thanks. Dmitry.
