Ronald, I think you are overreacting a little bit. It may be that
proper written could would get no benefit from this patch since it
would not load unneeded code and this patch ends up speeding up
environments where such "correct" loading isn't done. I don't think
that's a reason to disqualify a feature that brings benefits with
no significant drawbacks.
For the average PHP programmer, the language will simply "get
faster". That can't be bad in any way. It doesn't encourage you to
write bad code, it just doesn't kick you in the nuts when you do.
Sold. (The best arguments are always the short ones).
As I said: "I'm trying to raise a token flag of discussion/
resistance", but nobody in the discussion seems to have found any
really important downsides, yet, with only me raising *any* sort of
flag (though I admit it's not much of one).
