Interesting reading for sure.
Sidenote ... has anyone played with Zephir?

It allows you to write in OO php (mostly, there are some differences for sure), Zephir will translate this into C code so you can compile it in to an php extension like bla.so With that done you can add in your php.ini and use in your application.
Like say we redo parse_bbc, we could have it complied in to a parsebbc.so and for sites, that have control over their installs, they could use a complied extension for that function.
Thats just a crazy example, its really just a cool way to be able to write php extensions without having to know C to do so.

I have no problem with php7.0 too but I do have minor login problem with php7.1. Something to do with session and may be with Multi Tenancy Addon, I think. Otherwise, they are both great version to use with ElkArte.
