Because it mostly just defers the problem.

If the desire is to move away from PHP5 then I would suggest to force
a failure when starting Apache, if PHP5 is defined when PHP is required.

Ie. fail closed.

I can be talked into supporting the idea to only print a warning when
PHP5 is set and to not fail (no source served) for some period of
time until which the forced failure starts, if PHP5 is still set.

Don't fail open, fail closed. Since manual interaction is required
some people will forget or overlook it, and will get a failure.

I would introduce the failure right away, but maybe a warning will
make some happy who would otherwise have gotten a failure.
