That is BULLSHIT.
On php 7.3, it is not enabled by default.

On debian, you need to install php-xml with "apt install php-xml".


Test script:
---------------
<?php

new SimpleXMLElement('<kjsdc/>');

Expected result:
----------------
empty output

Actual result:
--------------
Fatal error: Class 'SimpleXMLElement' not found in .....
