While it is true that no one is forced to use the new syntax, I will
inevitably come across it in libraries that decide to use it, thus I
will be forced to know that it is a thing and to understand what it
does. And of course all IDEs and static analyzers will need to learn
about it as well.
Of course, I can't cover all areas, especially proprietary IDEs.
However, I planned to prepare corresponding changes for the following
tools: nikic/PHP-Parser, psalm, phpstan, php-cs-fixer. If this could
affect the vote, I can prepare changes to the this projects before the vote.
