Depending on how far back you have to support (e.g., WordPress is still supporting 5.2), omission of the middle part wasn't supported until PHP 5.3.

5.3 came out seven years ago and isn't even officially supported by the PHP project now, let alone 5.2.

I know all too well, and you'd never catch me running that on any of my own systems. With a large enough install base, it's not uncommon to have a decent number of people on those older versions though.
