'<?php=' isn't allowed by the current W3C standards so enabling this would brake standards compliance for PHP scripts.
If you want to be able to use '<?php=' you should go to W3C.org. There's where the XHTML/XML specs are defined.
If people change their code from '<?' to '<?php' then, while they're at it, they might just as well change it to '<?php echo'. It's just a teeny little bit more code but it makes sure that your documents remain standards compliant.
If you really don't like to use '<?php echo' and don't care about standards compliance, I'd suggest you keep short tags enabled.
