No, it's not, it's overly complex. You have to define all sorts of different
expression and variable variations :(
if you don't, you will get a complex executor.
Not really, type checks are cheap.
I really don't get it, you are saying current is bad, but every
language has defects, either parser, or executor.
why do you think rewrite a new parser will make every think perfect?
there is no perfect language at all.
I don't mean perfect, but current parser in PHP is very limiting
compared to other language parsers, and it makes doing things more
difficult, and creates lots of things which should work but don;t.
