As I've written about this on a "meta" RFC (which is more a personal tracker of what changed I want to make to the language), strict_types is more or less mandatory on PHP 7, but you can forgo it in PHP 8 for the most part as the biggest wtfs with numeric strings has been more or less "fixed", now you'll still get incompatible float to int conversions, but in PHP 8.1 you'll get a deprecation notice for this.
FWIW, I wrote this for the exact same reason. https://github.com/sj-i/php-cast
