As Rasmus is probably tired of pointing out, this isn't much of an argument. 
This:

if ($i < 4) {
    ...

is incompatible with XML (it'd have to be if ($i &lt; 4) ...)

I find it unfortunate that there's a feature available with short tags on that 
isn't available with them off, because that means it's a feature that you can't 
use if you want to write code that'll work with anyone's php installation. But 
that's about it - I end up on the fence.
