Because we're talking about avoiding clumsiness, and:
if (array_key_exists('index', $array) && $array['index'] == 1) ...
is MORE verbose (and arguably clumsier) than
if (isset($array['index']) && $array['index'] == 1) ...
which for the purposes of this discussion is equivalent.
(And yes, I realize that in the case of a checkbox the mere test for key
existence is sufficient, but I like to be consistent in these types of
constructs despite the input type...)
