What do you mean developers should deal with functions like those? They're used when necessary, yes, just like any function. And no IDE is required. I'm really puzzled.
Either working with PHP for 21 years is not long enough or simply too long. I honestly think these small inconsistencies are irrelevant in the big picture of building something complex. Like you said, programmers should deal with them. It just doesn't sound like a big deal.

What else to say, good luck.
You didn't get the anecdote, that's probably because you haven't worked with PHP (long enough).
I will give hint: inconsistency.
