That isn't the way echo works and that isn't the way here-documents work.
The echo utility doesn't read standard input, so nothing being done in the here document will be echo'ed by echo.
A here-document operates in the shell execution environment of the command that will be run; not in the current shell execution environment. So, anything you execute in the here-document may affect echo's environment, but it won't be visible in the environment of the shell that ran echo.
The purpose of a here-document is to create text that will be able to be read from the file descriptor specified (fd 0 by default) by the command line that contains the here-document.
If you put the text var=valuein a here-document, the shell doesn't assign value to var; it just makes the stirng "var=value" available to be read from standard input of the command. You can see this if you use cat instead of echo:

I do not know how valid this post is, but here it is.
I was writing a script for testing some development code that I had written. It involved many echo statements to redirect the output into a log file.
Given the large number of echo statements, I took to this solution

I understand that a Here Document will redirect all of the lines between the beginning marker for the here document and the ending marker into the command specified just as if the text were coming from standard input.

intval
INTVAL(3) 1 INTVAL(3)intval - Get the integer value of a variableSYNOPSIS
int intval (mixed $var, [int $base = 10])
DESCRIPTION
Returns the integer value of $var, using the specified $base for the conversion (the default is base 10). intval(3) should not be used on
objects, as doing so will emit an E_NOTICE level error and return 1.
PARAMETERS
o $var
- The scalar value being converted to an integer
o $base
- The base for the conversion
Note
If $base is 0, the base used is determined by the format of $var:
o if string includes a "0x" (or "0X") prefix, the base is taken as 16 (hex); otherwise,
o if string starts with "0", the base is taken as 8 (octal); otherwise,
o the base is taken as 10 (decimal).
RETURN VALUES
The integer value of $var on success, or 0 on failure. Empty arrays return 0, non-empty arrays return 1.
The maximum value depends on the system. 32 bit systems have a maximum signed integer range of -2147483648 to 2147483647. So for example
on such a system, intval('1000000000000') will return 2147483647. The maximum signed integer value for 64 bit systems is
9223372036854775807.
Strings will most likely return 0 although this depends on the leftmost characters of the string. The common rules of integer casting
apply.
EXAMPLES
Example #1
intval(3) examples
The following examples are based on a 32 bit system.
<?php
echo intval(42); // 42
echo intval(4.2); // 4
echo intval('42'); // 42
echo intval('+42'); // 42
echo intval('-42'); // -42
echo intval(042); // 34
echo intval('042'); // 42
echo intval(1e10); // 1410065408
echo intval('1e10'); // 1
echo intval(0x1A); // 26
echo intval(42000000); // 42000000
echo intval(420000000000000000000); // 0
echo intval('420000000000000000000'); // 2147483647
echo intval(42, 8); // 42
echo intval('42', 8); // 34
echo intval(array()); // 0
echo intval(array('foo', 'bar')); // 1
?>
NOTES
Note
The $base parameter has no effect unless the $var parameter is a string.
