 Right. There was a big discussion many years ago whether the PHP or the
 HTML should be "more readable". Since then the general tendency has been
 to make the PHP more readable as the HTML is usually "seen" in the browser
 console and white space is ignored.

 I personally don't mind revisiting this discussion, but thinking that
 nothing has changed there. Better readability in PHP is preferable to some
 white space in HTML as the latter is reformatted by the browser tools when
 viewed.
