Doesn't that prove it? Why create something that you feel is
better otherwise? And assuming Hack _is_ better, not like it's
killing PHP yet, further supporting the law. ;)
Hack IS better no doubt. But that disprove the Gresham's law
hypothesis, namely that PHP sticks because it is irreplaceable.
On the other hand, you'll note that what I said was good about
PHP also apply to hack; hack is a different language, but it
shares its execution model with PHP.
