Whats New in PHP 8.2

This is so funny to me how it's constantly brought up here but has never been an inconvenience to me, and I started with PHP3 in 1998.

Even before auto-completion I guess I would just read the docs.

To each his own I guess.

I am sure that if you use a language/library for long enough, its bad design descisions aren't a huge problem to you.

Reading the docs of course helps, but it is still inconvenience and waste of time to check inconsistent parameter order and function naming from docs. I don't understand why people are so keen on defending these things.

It really is irrelevant nowadays, with a) all IDEs showing you the required parameters as you type, and b) with named parameters.
