Why not compatible with PHP 7.0?

So you created this awesome tool just to refuse PHP 7.0? Not fair! Yes I created an issue just to say that!

The library uses some features that aren’t available in PHP 7.0.

Active support for PHP 7.0 ends in 17 days, so I thought there is no need to support older versions than 7.1.

I also looked at other libraries. Symfony for example requires PHP 7.1 too.

Are there any good reasons to add support for PHP 7.0? If so, I might add support for it in the next version.

No good reason at all. Well, except that I currently work with PHP 7.0. It's been helpful though. Great work.

Please keep in mind that PHP 7.0 is no longer in active support since two days. Upgrading to 7.1 or 7.2 is highly recommended.

Yeah, I know that.
