Yup, Simon J. pointed that out too so usage of _ was already a discarded
topic.
The top topic now is a possible consistency with the syntax already allowed
when using list. Ex:
list($bar, , $baz) = ['good', 'trash', 'nice'];
Andrea,

But I get it, it would also prevent language syntax from growing just to
have a trivial feature. Apart from the debate about meaning of the
assignment using a blank identifier, it would be beneficial to use the same
syntax even though situations are distinct.
I guess only Stas can decide to give up on default and use a blank
identifier. Anyway, hope this decision don't affect the voting negatively,
feature is cool.
