 I'm undecided on that at this moment. Adding a `_doing_it_wrong()` would
 ''raise'' the error level from `E_DEPRECATED` to `E_NOTICE`, but would
 also make it more visible as the notice will display on all PHP versions,
 not just on PHP 8.1 and up.

 I'd like to hear some more opinions about this.
