Congratulations. Even though I dislike "stirct_types" part, I appreciate
your efforts.

Since weakly typed mode is too weak to be useful for detecting possible
errors and
strict type mode is overridden by any caller(parent script), it's still
reasonable to have
CoerciveSTH RFC. I hope many of us see the benefits of the RFC also.

BTW, I suggest to remove the word "strict" from "strict_types" at least as
it is
not strict at all if caller(parent script) does not specify
"strict_types=1".

Regards,
