To add to the list of helpful warnings, I ran across the following "thinko": for ($x = 0; $x < 23; $x++) { ... } which (I believe) is a legitimate for-loop across a multidimensional array literal: for (...) -> $_ { ... } but almost always means loop (...) { ... } We need to make a list of these. /s
