I honestly don't understand why that's a bad idea.  There are a LOT of
settings that hosters could abuse, but as a general rule they don't,
because it breaks client apps and clients leave.

A hoster could just as easily install XDebug and turn that setting on.
Are they doing that?

Or are you, Derick Rethans, suggesting that installing XDebug is a bad idea? ;)

Eh, feels very tomato-tomato to me.  Trading in a line in
php.ini/.htaccess/index.php for a line in index.php.  Ultimately I'm
the wrong person to defend this since I don't personally have a need
for it, I was just trying to offer compromises.

For context, I do believe the person suggesting it was thinking in
terms of "Finding that fatal error that's been supressed."
