why those who want 'strict' can't have that as a pecl module to replace
'lax' operations.

Simple, the most robust implementation is inferior to internal support.

Making a call to this:

function (int $some, double $other) {

}

behave as if Zend is strict is quite easy, what is difficult is:

class Foo {
    public function bar(int $some) {

    }
}

class Qux extends Foo {
    public function bar(double $some) {

    }
}

Enforcing our current rules is so hard you might as well call it impossible.

TL;DR because internal support is much much much better, in every possible
way

Cheers

Even if you managed it, it would not be robust, in any reasonable opinion.
