Well where is PHP core then? to my knowledge while PHP 5 was a huge step forward, PHP core did little to fix PHP stupid design flaws,for the sake of backward compatibility.
We are in a new era, libraries are more and more decoupled,so they are easy to write or rewrite,backward compatibily shouldnt be an issue when libraries are well versioned and tested across different versions.
And Wordpress folks dont care about PHP.next.Why bother with them?
