The PR implementing this has already been merged for inclusion in PHP 8.0.1: https://github.com/php/php-src/pull/6478 > 2.

This is a contentious topic and will have to be handled on a case by case basis I guess. E.g. for security-related stuff a fail-early-strategy throwing an exception might be preferable, for basic lower-level functions like is_file() returning false was chosen to be preferable. There is no silver bullet for all cases and having a global switch would only make things worse. - Chris
