Hello again,

A reddit discussion has started as well: https://www.reddit.com/r/PHP/comments/1jbcbtx/php_rfc_optional_interfaces/

It might be useful to those who haven't made their minds up yet. It contains a lot of opinions with both criticism and usecases of this feature.

The key point, hoewever, seems to be that the naming of the feature is excremental and very easy to misunderstand. I suppose the naming issue can be solved separately (if a better name is found) and the documentation can use a different naming and description if the RFC itself passes.

BR,
Juris
