People come with all sorts of rules, but honestly I think sometimes you just know. I've seen code that breaks a lot of the rules people are going to list, that I've felt in practice was fine. This is what I've inherited. Coding style is often a bikeshed, but sometimes it needs more shedding.

This looks like one of my points: "non-neccessary complexity". Why using "echo" statements if PHP is already designed as procedural web-templating language? If it's not a function that dynamically renders template based on some params.
