I like the concept with list-style arrays, but find the behaviour with regards associative arrays quite confusing. There's already a difference in behaviour between array_merge and + in this regard, and having a third way of writing the same thing isn't great - it would apparently be legal to write $foobar = [...$foo, ...$bar]; to simply merge two existing arrays. If anything, I think I would expect the keys of splatted arrays to be discarded, since it seems most natural to use this in a list context, but I can imagine always having to check in the manual. -- Rowan Collins [IMSoP] -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
