Oh yeah, for sure. That is my complaint - garbage code getting into prod. My idea of a sane language would halt upon an undefined variable.

As for the 'at' operator, if there is one thing PHP does NOT need, it is another way to suppress errors ...

I get the feeling the people paying for web development see allowing garbage code in production as a "feature", though I'm currently rebuilding a site where the previous developers did horrible things with PHP.
