Again, you are confusing particular implementation of a particular
filter with the idea of filtering. Moreover, even existing filters do
not match your description:
No, he's not. Filtering and escaping are two very significant concepts
in security. Just because PHP implemented some escaping concepts into
the filter function does not mean that the concerns are co-related.
Ah, again you see, I'm confusing things :) In the security context,
English language context, and signal processing context, a filter
removes. In computer science, but not computer security, it processes.
I'm very confused :P
