So the last point was thinking about how to interpret
@param DateInterval ...$intervals
versus
@param DateInterval[] ...$intervals
Stefano and I appear to agree that the first one fits correctly with code
signature
function gatherIntervals (DateInterval ...$intervals)
where individual DateInterval objects are passed in as arguments, whereas
the second one fits with
function gatherIntervals (array ...$intervals)
where a series arrays of DateInterval objects are passed in as arguments.
Are there any further use cases to consider, such that this defined usage
of "[]" with "..." will not suffice?
