Popular in what context? I'm not sure this usage is even correct. strlen::class isn't the name of the strlen function; it's the name of the class that you'd be instantiating with "new strlen()", which would be relative to the current namespace. If your code is running in the root namespace, this will happen to resolve to "strlen", but that doesn't mean it's returning a callable.
