 > Although in the default compilation since PHP 5.0, until PHP 5.3 PHP can
 be compiled without the SPL, so it's not guaranteed to have the interface
 always present. I suspect that referencing a non-defined interface would
 cause a fatal error for those (few) that don't have the SPL compiled in
 PHP.

 There is more in PHP that can be disabled which will break Wordpress even
 the minimum requirements don't show that picture. So generally this would
 need a review whether or not PHP is commonly compiled without the SPL.
 That is commonly not the case, the SPL is available everywhere by default
 and it's safe to expect it that way.

 > Similarly to #20297, what is the use case for this?

 The usage is obvious I'd say. See [http://php.net/Countable PHP Manual]
 for details of the interface.
