Hello internals! This is my first time writing here :)
The deprecation was originally added in RFC Deprecations for PHP 8.1, but in a later stage dropped entirely: https://wiki.php.net/rfc/deprecations_php_8_1?do=diff&rev2%5B0%5D=1623754059&rev2%5B1%5D=1623759320&difftype=sidebyside It was already discussed on this mailing list: > List: php-internals > Subject: Re: [PHP-DEV] [RFC] Deprecations for PHP 8.1 > From: Nikita Popov <nikita.ppv () gmail ! com> > Date: 2021-06-15 12:23:50 > Message-ID: CAF+90c8wht+LpERZxj-XuY4sAYek8fH9hH_fc+JVZYg_yiAMpw () mail ! > gmail ! com > > On Tue, Jun 15, 2021 at 12:48 PM Hans Henrik Bergan <divinit...@gmail.com> > wrote: > >> i don't like this part of the RFC: > > >>> There's a number of bug reports related to this.

I do understand why it was dropped entirely from RFC, but I do not understand this part: > the topic was controversial Why is that? I did not found any information regarding this one on internals mailing list.
