This has been under discussion for a really long time and putting it
off is unlikely to substantially change the outcome. The current RFCs
went to vote within the allowed timeline for PHP7. What you are
basically saying is that the entire PHP 7 timeline is flawed. If
that's the case then you should be arguing for the PHP7 timing to be
changed, if you feel that any RFC will need additional development
time, not for the typehinting RFCs to all be withdrawn.
