I don't know who's code you've been looking at, but I've seen a lot of
heredoc code used. It can be quite useful in a lot of situations. It's
easy to both read and write.

However, your comments about "concatenation hell" makes me wonder if you
understand what heredoc actually is. There is no concatenation in heredoc.
