I've voted -1 because I think this should be a function and not an operator. compare($a, $b) is more obvious than $a <=> $b and it's not like writing comparison functions is such a super common use case that it needs the extra brevity of an operator. A function can furthermore be used as a callback, while an operator requires a wrapping closure. Nikita
