We did that mistake with magic_quotes and the ze1 compatibility mode in
PHP 5.0. We should learn from that and reduce
No. Hell no. The last thing PHP needs is an ill thought out string of
function name changes to further pollute the global name space. Further,
merely changing the names isn't going to do anything.
What would help is a massive clean and redo for PHP 8 in the same vein as
Actionscript 2 to 3 had a
