Feast your eyes on this: https://wiki.php.net/rfc/isset_ternary
This eliminates quite a bit of ‘noise’ and ‘fluff’ use in any display logic, it’s a new ternary operator that allows you to quickly set a default without doing the isset() dance.
This has a limited affect if you use a templating engine like Twig, but it’s still very nice if you have to do some quick and dirty default setting at the code level for display.
