The problem is that in practice most of the PHP libraries consider themselves to be compatible with newer PHP versions. For instance, Symfony PropertyInfo uses "php": ">=8.2" constraint in its composer.json.
That seems like a problem they have created for themselves. It seems an error to me to declare software forward-compatible with PHP versions that do not yet exist and thus have clearly not been tested against. Being as it is an error, we shouldn't consider it impinges on PHP's definition of a BC break. Cheers, Bilge
