a typedef for size_t? It’s not like it’ll vary on different platforms,
doing so would defeat the purpose of using size_t in the first place.

Was not desired back then as it "changed too much". So it simply matched
what already exists for years.

To me we should just use size_t and uint32_t for zend_uint (solving the
zend_uint vs zend_into_t).
