No, I don't think so.

I write code so that the next programmer who reviews my work can do 
so easily. Making code cryptic does absolutely nothing but cause 
problems for others. It doesn't mean you're a clever programmer, it 
just means that you don't know any better.

Also, short tags don't work well with xml and another reason for 
depreciating them.

Cheers,
