If it's put into the language then it affects 100% of the users,
but what percentage of the user base would actually take advantage
of this feature? If it's only 1% then for the other 99% it's a
complete waste of time
how does any feature you don't use affect you?
Because the language itself becomes bloated with the capabilities it
has to offer, look for and deal with. This makes it bigger and slower
unproven claim!
It's pure common sense! You have to carry around the capability of doing
something, then have tests everywhere to see if that capability is
actually required or not at run-time.
it depends on the implementation and just beause you say so does not
prove anything and even if you need to measure, optimize and make
decisions based on technical facts - what you do is "mimimi i say"
There is a big difference between adding something to the language core
which everyone has to load into memory, and having something in an
extension which is entirely optional.
or why did 5.3, 5.4, 5.5 and 5.6 not speaking about 7.0/7.1 *all* have
new features and where *faster* then the previous version - frankly
you are raising alarm for no reason
PHP 7 is faster than PHP 5 for various reasons, such as it being 64bit
instead of 32bit
WTF, only in your windows world which don't matter that much, everywhere
else x86_64 is normal for many years and each software
and improvements made to the engine itself, such as
the AST. I submit that it would be smaller and faster if it did not have
to carry around so much dross. Adding something to the core language
just to save a few keystrokes for a small number of lazy developers
falls into the category of dross
you ignored that practicaly *every* PHP version before PHP/ was faster
*and* had new features compared to the previous one
