I have enjoyed reading everyone's viewpoints on this subject. In the end, it has reinforced that at least for my personal standard, <?php declare(strict_types=1) is best kept on the same line for the following reasons:
1. It communicates to me right away that we're playing by new PHP rules in this file. 2. In all of my own projects, and in their composer dependencies, I have not once seen ticks or encoding declared with the exception of some tests in nikic/php-parser. 3. In Jordi's example of real code, the same-line version looks easier for me to parse as a reader, gives an extra 2 lines, and allows the DocBlock to stand out better. I'm not a member, so there's not much else that I can do or say beyond my initial suggestion. From the responses in this thread, it sounds like there's a 50/50 split in opinions despite the unanimous results of the survey that Korvin mentioned. I hope you guys get it all figured out!
