It sounds like a nice QOL improvement. I'm ok with preg_match not
working and I would even say it would be wrong if it did work like
that.
It would also prevent people from accidentally forgetting to provide
the matching subject in as it would generate UnhandledMatchError with
non-bool types.
I don't know about switch though. I think switch should always have a
subject because it's loose comparison. So if the vote is whether we
should allow no subject in both then I would vote no.
