First, those two statements are mutually exclusive.

Second, the idea of keeping PHP as it currently is, and pushing people
who want to evolve the language out from core PHP to make their own
language, is effectively telling those people to make a fork of the
project.

This is not an appropriate thing to suggest.

Please stop trying to regain control of the PHP project either through
direct threats or through telling people that they should fork off the
project if they want to evolve PHP.

I strongly feel the conversations you are provoking on internals are
not productive or healthy for the project.
