New Comment:
It seems the RFC[1] contradicts itself:
| It is implemented by using the result of the existing internal
| compare_function that underlies the other comparison operators.
but:
| // only values are compared
| $a = (object) ["a" => "b"];
| $b = (object) ["b" => "b"];
| echo $a <=> $b; // 0
However:
var_dump($a < $b); // => bool(false)
var_dump($b < $a); // => bool(false)
And currently:
echo $a <=> $b; // => 1
echo $b <=> $a; // => 1
Apparently, there is a problem with comparing unordered values with
the spaceship operator.
