This RFC is explicitly saying that there is stuff that will be need to
be changed in the future. Why would anyone upgrade from PHP 5.6 to PHP
70 when there are going to be more changes to the type system?

Everyone would wait until that future version of PHP to upgrade and so
just have to do a single migration, instead of having to do two
migrations?

This is clearly worse than the strict STH RFC; with that people can
write code that will work on 5.x, 7 and 7.x by just not using scalar
type hints.
