Have we used the same PHP? IME it's usually necessary to read the comments on the documentation for important information, which is frequently totally absent in the actual documentation.

Haven't used PHP seriously for a decade I think so I might have a bit of rose tinted glasses.
But I am fairly certain that like the Perl documentation and unlike Java and Spring docs none of them was infuriating.
Everything spelled out. No "you must read the whole thing or have worked with it for years to understand page 5".
Plenty of inline examples and even more user submitted ones (although as with all user generated content, some caution should be used when reading those).
