Most likely not, we don't get tons of questions about other parser errors, unless the person refuses to read the error message to begin with (Those can't be fixed, true. But this for those people that DO read the messages, which is greater number than what you guys lead on)

I have to say, you certainly are sure of yourself when it comes to describing our opinions and actions, yet - aside from argue a point that has little chance of succeeding here, as you can tell - you've done nothing to give your point validity outside of your own experience and interpretations.

     You mentioned how great it was that PHP is FOSS, and that you'd

only have to bribe whomever is handling patch reviews and submissions. Another great thing about FOSS: your right to fork. It's not that I'm that sure of myself, it's that I believe that my opinion has merit, and I keep seeing the exact same argument over and over again that I believe is not a very good argument (They can just google it thing). Some other people have provided other arguments as well and those are more valued. (Though I don't think they are strong enough reasons yet NOT to do it).

Forking won't fix this particular problem.
