Yes, that would need an RFC. Feel free to pursue. For the time
being, I'm suspending this ticket.

I have a fairly up-to-date PR exactly for this which I don't plan to pursue: https://github.com/php/php-src/pull/5483. Please
feel free to start an RFC by using this implementation if you would like this functionality in PHP.

... i should have googled more, apparently it's already an "RFC under discussion", https://wiki.php.net/rfc/scalar-pseudo-type

Description:
------------
i suggest a scalar pseudo-type, much like Iterable,
today if one wants to accept scalar arguments, one has to write something like:
<?php
function f($sc){
if(!is_string($sc) && !is_int($sc) && !is_float($sc) && !is_bool($sc)){
throw new \InvalidArgumentException('argument #1 ($sc) must be a scalar type');
}
}
class C{
public $sc;
function set_sc($sc){
if(!is_string($sc) && !is_int($sc) && !is_float($sc) &&
!is_bool($sc)){
throw new \InvalidArgumentException('argument #1 ($sc) must be a scalar
type');
}
$this->sc = $sc;
}
}
?>
luckily it gets easier in PHP8,
<?php
function f(string|int|float|bool $sc){
}
class C{
public string|int|float|bool $sc
}
?>
even so, if there was a Scalar pseudo-type, i would use it.
Test script:
---------------
<?php
declare(strict_types=1);
function fun(Scalar $sc){
var_dump($sc);
}
fun(1);
Expected result:
----------------
int(1)
Actual result:
--------------
Fatal error: Uncaught TypeError: fun(): Argument #1 ($sc) must be of type Scalar, int given, called
in /in/PDjNq on line 6 and defined in /in/PDjNq:3
Stack trace:
#0 /in/PDjNq(6): fun(1)
#1 {main}
thrown in /in/PDjNq on line 3
Process exited with code 255.
