And register_globals was widely used in PHP, that does not make it anything but moronic.

I don't think register_globals has been widely used for at least 10 or 12 years. It's been deprecated for a while and was removed completely in 5.4.0.

Hence "was". It was widely used at one point, if only because it was enabled by default until 2002 (disabled by default was introduced in PHP 4.2)
