"i don't see a benefit, i don't like it" are no valid reasons to do so
I strongly disagree. If a majority of people do not see the benefit of a syntax change then the syntax should not be changed. A change to the syntax of PHP has a ripple effect throughout the library and tools ecosystem of PHP. This is a cost. This cost needs to be justified by a benefit.
which costs do a new feature without BC break have for the ecosystem?
