You may be formally correct (or maybe not, because
https://wiki.php.net/rfc/voting doesn't really
say that).

In any case, a vote that reaches supermajority (i.e. it would have
been accepted if it had been a separate RFC) is an unambiguous
expression on how the community wants the PHP source code to look
like.

It is safe to say that the PHP community doesn't want any include
comments and forward declarations, but wants to split large headers in
order to reduce header dependencies.

I guess we both don't like the outcome of the vote (for different
reasons), but let's not start lawyering pointlessly, and accept the
community's will.
