Now that we have named arguments, the issue of long and complicated list of arguments is considerably weaken, since you can write: array_column($foo, column_key: 'name', grouping: true); in lieu of: array_column($foo, null, 'name', true) Also, an alternative to a new function, is reusing the same function with an alternative signature, as it was done for setcookie: https://www.php.net/manual/fr/function.setcookie.php <https://www.php.net/manual/fr/function.setcookie.php> I have no opinion about which of the three approaches (new parameter, same function with alternative signature, new function) is better; I just mention the various alternatives. —Claude
