Sorry, I have to disagree with you. A language whose maintainers decided that, in the fifth major release, `goto` needed to be added is not getting better. Nor is one whose maintainers rationalize the choice of backslash as a third, distinct scope resolution operator -- instance-attribute, class-attribute, and now namespace-member. The sheer number of fails with PHP warrants the 'good language' treatment. The fact that, 08 === 0 alone is enough to make it deserving of this treatment.
