What happened to "backwards compatibility"?

Two questions:

1) It says it's "catchable"; why isn't it caught? :-)
2) It seems to me that no argument was given. Why not default to an empty
array()?

I agree, but the practical side is that TYPO3 lives in a world with
thousands of extensions which may not all contain the best possible code
:-(
If it were 5.0 I wouldn't mind stricter demands, but for 4.x I expect as
many extensions as possible still to function as before. (My $0.02)
