To be clear: No, I’m not agreeing with: “That by-reference passing is mainly useful to interoperate with by-reference internal functions”. I don’t think that every PHP developer consider that the design of `array_push()` and `array_multisort()` is flawed, and that they must avoid such a pattern in their own user-defined functions. More generally, I don’t think that every PHP developer consider that only the latest trendy coding style is valid, or that every legacy code not following that style should be rewritten. —Claude
