if FWIW if DateTime::__toString() was just
function __toString():string{

     return $this->format(\DateTime::RFC3339);

}

Considering the replies, PHP Date(Time|Interval) API could probably born again from a nice cleanup/improvements iteration.

The one thing I miss the most is not having a Date (especially for when you fetch dates from SQL, and you don't care about TZ handling, you may very bad surprises using a DateTime to reprensent it on the PHP side due to potential implicit TZ conversion, which may create +1 or -1 decal in your dates, either at instance creation or display), along with a Time type, and DateTime being an aggregate of the two altogether.
