Out of interest, is there a technical reason you couldn't use an existing token, such as => for this?https://wiki.php.net/rfc/short_closures#symbol_choice In particular, note that this is already valid code: [$x => $x * 2] (A one-element array, specifying the key) But with the proposal, this would also be perfectly reasonable: [$x ~> $x * 2] (A one-element array containing a closure) So clearly they couldn't share the same syntax.
