Will _you_ write such code? No. Will anybody from this list write such code=
?=20
No. Will any good PHP developer write such code? No. So why do you think=20
that's a problem? It would be a problem only for people writing such code, =
and=20
I think that such people will be able to do something stupid with every=20
syntax.

PS. Somebody might also write
$a =3D $b ? $c ? true : false ? true : false : true;
Does it mean, that ternary is bad? Of course not.

PS2. *I* *personally* like :: much more than : and I think, that conflictin=
g=20
namespaced functions and class functions should just result in an error, as=
=20
