In fact only the latest version of PHP - 7.0 - supports this. Also see
<http://php.net/manual/en/migration70.new-features.php>.

So "outdated" is not really correct.

According to <http://php.net/supported-versions.php> PHP 5.6 is not
outdated yet and will get security fixes until 28 August 2016. Even PHP
5.5 is still getting security fixes - and both version don't support the
null coalesce operator.

There are also many older installations if PHP as well which either get
maintained by the distributors (e.g. Debian/Ubuntu) or they just don't
get upates at all.

As PHP 7.0 was just released a couple of weeks ago I also doubt that
many shared hosting provider already offer PHP 7.0. Many of them will
still use PHP 5.6 or 5.5 to avoid trouble with older PHP scripts of
their customers.
