How has the handling of namespaces evolved in PHP versions, specifically in relation to the Scope-Operator "::"?

In earlier versions of PHP, namespaces were introduced to help avoid naming conflicts between classes, functions, and constants. The Scope-Operator "::" is used to access static properties and methods within classes. In newer PHP versions, namespaces have become more standardized and widely used, making it easier to organize and manage code. 

namespace MyNamespace;

class MyClass {
    public static function myMethod() {
        // code here
    }
}

// Accessing a static method using the Scope-Operator
MyNamespace\MyClass::myMethod();
