John I'm shocked - of all people I would expect you to be an advocate
of coding something that even E_ALL won't complain about.

Isn't that the whole point of it? :) besides it's not just a different
interface - if you make a mistake you have a chance that smarty will
catch this and deal with it nicely for you. A "pure" PHP "engine"
(sic) will not, you get a function name wrong and the site will brake.

Sure.. you can code around it.. but then if you keep playing that
card, soon enough you've written your own Smarty replacement, which is
somewhat ironic, no?
