Because somebodies code will depend on functionality not changing, and we
shouldn't break their code without a very good reason.
I can't judge the scope of the break, or how many users will be affected. I
just want to say that breaks without a good reason shouldn't happen.
Seconded.
In hindsight I personally would have preferred to remain with clean PHP5.2 code
and should have carried on with that. I've wasted many many months reworking
everything for PHP5.4 and so I'm now at a stage where my real answer is probably
"Do what you like, I'll stick with and maintain PHP5.4 now". The problem is that
ISP's like Go Daddy will still switch versions without any regard to users as
they have just done with Apache 2.4 so we all end up having to live with other
peoples decisions :( I still have sites where 'register_globals' is on simply
because I've not had any time to rework perfectly functional systems and I can
avoid anybody else changing the infrastructure! Nobody will pay for changing
those sites ...
