I think the legitimacy of final/sealed classes goes to the heart of this
RFC. As long as people are going to discuss it and bring up counter points,
then I think asking someone to stop defending their view is a bit out of
line.

That being said, David has never said he is against developers being able
to annotate their classes as being final or sealed. He is just against the
engine enforcing such requirements. On this I agree. I understand that
other languages support this concept - and frankly, I don't care. The
flexibility that PHP offers has always been one of its greatest strengths
and this just further erodes that.
