I'm thumbs down on this for a few reasons. 1. We already have str_contains function. It is more intuitive that a false strpos call, and it makes an array_filter function clean too.
array_filter($values, static fn($value) => str_contains($value, 'foo'));

With PHP 8.6 this could even just be:

    array_filter($values, str_contains(?, 'foo'));

Other than that, I agree with your email entirely. Best regards Tim Düsterhus
