Actually this issue also exists in PHP 5.6 if you have more than one optional parameter:

class Foo {
    public function test($foo = null, $bar = null) {}
}

class Baz extends Foo {
    public function test(...$args) {}
}

The fact that it worked for one was just an accident that PHP 7 fixed.

We should allow changing any number of optional arguments to a variadic one in both 5.6 and 7.0.
