When did Google ever set clear rules? It's all rubber paragraphs that are enforced at the whim of anonymous bureaucrats who will never be held responsible for whatever decisions they make.

It should be possible, but I'm not sure if PHP has the kind of community drive behind it to make it a realistic option. Or a necessary one – emscripten's main use case is "everyone has a browser", but there's very f

Modularity isn't free. Wordpress' obsession with it – and bad implementation of it – leads to bizarre, 80000+ recursion level deep callback hells even on simple pages once you have 3-4 plugins running.
