Comment (by wildworks):
This ticket was featured on today's 6.9 Bug Scrub.
It looks like there are a huge number of areas that need to be updated.
Try searching using the following regular expression in your code editor.
{{{
isset\(\s*([^)]+?)\s*\)\s*\?\s*\1\s*:\s*([^\n;]+)
}}}
In my environment, 701 items and 208 files were found.
Updating all of these in a single PR may be a bit risky, so we may want to
consider how to split the work up.
