I know it is not and I think almost everyone knows that. As I said, I came
up with this by comparing to other declarations syntactically not
functionally, it is in

I understand your point but inconsistency in my sense is syntactical By
comparing to other declaration syntax like `var`, `static`, 'public` an
others. They allow only T_VARIABLE but `global` is different. And there's
another way to archive the same goal through `$GLOBALS`, that's why I see
it as i

I have found the form `global ${'abc'};` useful in the past to work
around the limits on what PHP can parse as variable
Hi Internals
I'm working on my new proposals and I've found weirdness of global variable
declaration in zend_language_parser.y.
global_var:
simple_variable
{ $$ = zend_ast_create(ZEND_AST_GLOBAL,
zend_ast_create(ZEND_AST_VAR, $1)); }
;
Above grammer allows something like this...
