Description:

correct: strtotime('') => bool(false)
however I did not expect: strtotime(' ') => current timestamp

I don't think this is by intention, is it?

hmm, don't see much of a problem with this ... I would not classify this as a bug that needs fixing.

I'm closing this (and the duplicate), as I am confused about this. Please open a new ticket at https://github.com/php/php-src/issues if this is still a pressing issue.
