Sorry but php-fig is not PHP and sme of the 'standards' created there
are at odds with the preferred practices in the PHP code ... which is
one reason I see that some of the developments have been thankfully
suspended.
As far as I know, the PHP core has never dictated docblock contents, or
any other aspect of coding style. Such decisions are up to "the
community", which is a very broad concept. PHP-FIG is an attempt to get
that community "around a table" to decide on a common style, and common
ways of working.
If you want to follow a different style, you can; if you want to form an
alternative community group to spread that style, you can. None of that
has anything to do with the core language.
Is composer now the only supported installation tool?
Supported by whom? It's certainly not supported by the core language,
it's just a program you can use. However, it seems to meet people's
needs better than previous alternatives, so it is very popular.
