PHP 8.5 adds |>
The

Ocaml and F# have currying, so they don’t need to support more than 1-arity. Elixir has established a convention of treating the first argument as the “subject”, so piping into the first argument makes sense. In PHP’s case, there is neither currying, nor established convention for argument order. I think piping will be not be as elegant here.

This is a dead horse that has been thoroughly beaten several times over. It’s never going to happen, but there are several options if you really want it.

What is fancier about the Elixir one than the F#/OCaml one?
