You can write gibberish in any language. You shouldn't kill useful features because they are sometimes misused.

Not even PHP's "register_globals"?

I'd argue that register_globals is never a good idea. Post-if is sometimes a good idea, with one case that is problematic (less readable, not even a negative affect on function)

I happen to agree, but the statement was about "useful features".

That is highly debatable.
