Comment:

 Unfortunately at this time we're not interested in adding such
 functionality to WordPress, and while loading WordPress on a modern
 version of PHP is still much slower than a stand alone PHP script, it's
 not as bad as many people feel it is (performance wise).

 There's plenty of scenario's you probably haven't thought about which
 would affect WordPress implementing something like this - how do we deal
 with Authentication? How do we deal with plugins being able to affect the
 output? etc.
 If you honestly truly want to call a static PHP file, you can do so - just
 know that themes which do that are not hosted in the WordPress.org theme
 directory, and we advise strongly against doing so.
