Hi! > Would both be more apparent as to its meaning and leave the door open > for other uses. Though at that point, tbqh, I think `switch ($a) use > (===) {...}` gives better visual isolation. I don't think we should reuse the use() thing for third purpose when we're already using it for two. I imagine with new parser logic we should not be as restricted in syntax choices as we've been before? So being a bit more explicit than "use(===)", which would be a bit of a head-scratcher for a casual PHP user. Something like "strict switch" at least gives a person something to ask about - what is "strict switch" exactly? But "use(===)" would be harder to read and harder to look up online. -- Stas Malyshev smalyshev@gmail.com
