Yes, I am wondering too. For mechanism you can refer to the source code,

Do keep in mind that you can serialize() the array before storing it in

I disagree. In C you can have:
const data foo[] = { { "Data1", 2 }, { "Data2", 78 } };
It's not unusual in php to have a complex structure that won't change
