Thankfully (to PSRs), I don't write non-namespaced code myself anymore:
that's not something that is true in many legacy and closed-source projects.
I tend to also healthily avoid any packages that declare symbols in the
global namespace.

Like many other things in life, just because you don't see something
doesn't mean that it is certainly not there ;-)
