Thanks for the reply. I'm not complaining about the lack of a full stop so much, but like in the example you called out, a comma is less appropriate there than a semicolon, em dash, or similar. If it were me, I'd just use a semicolon in those cases.Okay, in that case - even though there is explicitly no guarantee in the stability of error messages from PHP itself - changing it to a semicolon would nevertheless be a break in expectations of users who have already leveraged the
#[\Deprecated] attribute with a $reason.
