At that time PHP wasn't used in big projects, IMHO. When you start
using PHP in bigger projects (say, more than at least 5 person team),
you start facing problems because of ad hoc invention. Person A uses
different documentation style, Person B uses different function alias,
etc--that's the reason for the "standards" in companies. Well,
companies can bring a coding standards saying that don't use funcX, use
funcXAlias; but it's certainly an err at PHP end.

BTW, it's really funny to name a person works in ad hoc manner
(*just* getting things done) with "Engineer":-)
