I'm a fan of PHP in general, but I've never liked the FIG coding standards. Common interfaces for logging, caching, and the like are useful, though, so I don't think the PSRs are all useless. After using more languages with a distinction between strings and characters, a string in single quotes starts to look weird. Although there are several questionable "best practices" in general, I have found that stricter typing in PHP has generally been a plus.
