@loicfaugeron@phpc.social I have yet to understand why people are obsessed with strict_types when they use static analysis.
And if you aren't, then adding types and using weak mode is better then enabling strict_types anyway.
Especially that Rector for a long time, and maybe still, way of fixing this is to add casts which are worse than PHP's implicit coercions.
(I.e. seeing a cast is way more of a red flag than not using strict_types)

@Girgias@phpc.social do you mean that if people are using static analysis, then they don't need strict_types; and if they aren't using static analysis, they also don't need strict_types?
