In one sense, I agree. But when it comes to the question: let's vote on
the options to decide what, if anything, happens to PHP, they are
options with important differences. There's no way I can see to organize
the vote that would be fair to everyone.
For example, I prefer nullable returns only. I could settle for nullable
hints/returns (NRH) as a second choice but I would prefer to make no
change at all over union types. That being the case, I would want the
voting to be structured in one specific way.

I considered how this might work but I can't imagine how combining RFCs
makes it easier. If more than one yes/no voting option is presented in
one RFC, it's likely to be more confusing than voting on more than one RFC.
