'<?php=' isn't allowed by the current W3C standards so enabling this
would brake standards compliance for PHP scripts.
If you want to be able to use '<?php=' you should go to W3C.org. There's
where the XHTML/XML specs are defined.
If people change their code from '<?' to '<?php' then, while they're at
it, they might just as well change it to '<?php echo'. It's just a teeny
little bit more code but it makes sure that your documents remain
standards compliant.
If you really don't like to use '<?php echo' and don't care about
standards compliance, I'd suggest you keep short tags enabled.

Same for our company. We still use <? because of <?=
same here :-)
Would really be great if we could turn short_open_tags off and still
use the compact print syntax.
