Absolutely agree, and that's PHP's biggest issue. It is constantly doing things like this instead of simply complaining and stopping things down like any sane system would. If I were in charge of PHP, release 6 would be 5.4.4 with the standard library happily throwing exceptions on invalid input. That's it. The language would be 100% more useful instantly.

As mentioned to parent: then you'd have a lot of work to do to clean up one even more widely used language : )

  You mean JavaScript, right? Reading this conversation I was wondering how no comment would point at the same or bigger similar issues in JavaScript.
