The syntax you refer to is called "short tags", and is not universally
supported (it has to be turned on in your php config). I think there may
also be arguments about performance on short tags, but the main issue is the
cross platform support.

This is also reflected in the coding standards, which may point to some more
detailed discussions if interested.
