Yeah they do, with no real reason, really. Oohh, "some functions use underscore and others don't!" And? It's not a problem, really. Every language has baggage from the past and PHP kept it for stability, I'm happy with that.

    That's weird, but more of an aesthetics issue than anything. JavaScript will actually decide to behave oddly for no reason; if that's it it's still king of the shitbirds.
