the best answer to this is that it's down to persona preferance as well... some people might find it easier to read/write code that is in a more 'traditional' layout which is where using " or ' would help. I personally use a mixture of all 3 'methods' of using php. While in-line is fastest i sometimes find using lots of <?= ?> all over a pain. So I will drop in and out of methods according to how much php code/complexity of code vs ammount of HTML with/without generated content.
