Indeed, but most people think "webserver" when they think "PHP" so this
is an easy mistake to make and we should check for it and issue a
helpful error message.

Is there an official way to check "is this PHP script running in a CLI
version of PHP"?  I can't see one in the documentation, but it looks
like checking $_SERVER['argc'] should work if there's no official way.

Cheers,
