Seems strange to remove it when Javascript has introduced it with backtick strings like:

`words ${var} more words`

I thought we would start seeing more usage of this in PHP to make things more consistent.

The ${var} syntax is inconsistent with PHP’s own syntax though. Variables are normally referenced with a leading dollar sign, like $var, so if you wanted to make it look like template strings in JS it’d be ${$var} which is over complicated.
