 I already have a comment (to similar effect) from 2 weeks ago in
 https://make.wordpress.org/core/2019/07/12/php-coding-standards-changes/

 I've opened this ticket to translate that discussion into an actual change
 in core.
 If this ticket ends up as 'wontfix' - then that's that. Not much I can do
 about that. But I don't think it's an 'invalid' ticket (unless I'm missing
 some glaring dev-protocol faux pas I've made in opening this as a ticket).

 I (humbly) believe this ticket should stay open and that this change
 should be made.
