… including PHPDoc tags like `@return <type> $variableName`.
A return value doesn't have a variable name. I can see that
some people do this intentionally, repeating the variable
name that was used in the final `return $var;` at the end
of a method. This can indeed be helpful. I leave a lot of
these untouched and removed them only when it's obviously
wrong, or does not provide any additional information in
addition to what the code already says.

It is good code style to return a variable from the same scope as it is
definied and not from a level deeper.
For try/finally blocks this does not change the behaviour because the
finally block is executed if the scope is leaved, normally or by return
or by thrown exception.
This helps static code analyzer like phan to understand the code better.

All the magic functions needs public visibility to be callable from php
internals like garbage collector
