Why not both?

That's how you get this feature: https://wiki.php.net/rfc/deprecate-bareword-strings.

tldr: undefined constants were treated as a string (+ a warning), so `$x = FOO` was `$x = "FOO"` + a warning if `FOO` was not a defined constant. Thankfully this feature was removed in PHP 8.

They changed their license to AGPL, removed features (Web UI, etc.) and now they don't provide docker images/binaries. It's their project but; what's next?

Removing existing Docker images? Seems unlikely.

I understand the frustration; however using anything VC-funded, you are not paying for, is pretty risky.

It's still risky if you pay unless you have a contract guaranteeing what the renewal price would be.

Please ask the EU to lead by example then. The official EU commission website has a cookie banner (https://commission.europa.eu/index_fr)

So either: The EU commission is including trackers on their websites. And they should stop OR they acknowledge that it's almost impossible to build a website without some form of tracking that falls under the law, and they should look into the law itself.

So they have work on their plate.

Why would it be almost impossible to "build a website" without tracking?
