To quote a similar discussion, more than a decade ago:
'Great applications can be created in PHP w/o OO'
That's true, but who will argue about the OO addition today? Time to
slightly change our vision(s) in my opinion.
I'm not saying that having annotation is a dead critical feature, but
it is definitively something that helps framework a lot, especially
when it comes to interop, to port other solutions to PHP.
