Similarly to the ternary associativity RFC, I've analyzed the top 2000
composer packages and checked whether they would be affected by this
change: https://gist.github.com/nikic/a4df3e8e18c7955c2c21cf6cdb4cbfaa

The tl;dr is that there were 5 instances where behavior would change per
this RFC, and all 5 of them are bugs in current code and would be
interpreted correctly after this RFC.
