I do not agree. Older versions of the php engine (or older system configurations) could be able to understand "long open tags" only. And no (not insane) developer on planet earth wants his code to be not executed properly or ignored as buggy... As far as I know, there are no security reasons for keeping short tags off, but, considering what I told you in previous lines, you should avoid using this technique.
