IMHO, I think it's the newbies' decision on how and when to use functionality available in PHP. I see no problem with the examples in the documentation reflecting the use of functionality. There are countless examples in the manual currently which don't use what could be considered "best practice", so trying to clutter things up with debugging logic in this case seems unreasonable (especially when there is still so much with poor or no reasonable documentation at all).
