Not equivalent. Adding the Boo param type to an implementation, when it is only a comment in the parent gives an error. interface Foo { /*

    * @param $Boo, pretty please accept type Boo here
    */

public function bar( $Boo); } class Zot implements Foo {

     public function bar(Boo $Boo) {}

} Fatal error: Declaration of Zot::bar(Boo $Boo) must be compatible with Foo::bar($Boo) in %s on line %d

all these things should be just warnings instead fatal errors no matter if we talk about params or return-types simply because any sane code over years had types in the doc-block comments and now with throw fatal errors you just make it only harder move that comment hints to code
