Why use consecutive php tags? and can I join them together?

Hello all,
Sometimes I see consecutive php code put within many consecutive <?php and ?>, an example of this is index.php in many wordpress themes, why the code is not joined together in one php tag?
any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks a lot.


One could discuss Wordpress for days, one thing that pretty much everyone agrees on though is that the code isn’t “pretty” (good?).
