Finally!!! everybody will be able to parse my xml files with embedded php!!!!1!1 if I ever wrote one!!!
Sorry for the sarcasm, please don't consider this as a personal attack. The whole community (not just you) considers short open tags poison because not XML-compatible... while they use stuff like twig, which is also not XML-compatible. This is just beyond my understanding. But sure, let's keep vilifying this kind stuff and pretend they are the root cause of PHP's bad rep. Sorry again for the negativity.
