Welcome to the internal mailing list! I had looked the pull request, and I'm

Since mailing lists are text rather than HTML, you cannot attach links to 
strings.

Now, I agree that it is often not possible to use `PDO::FETCH_CLASS` because DB 
column names are typically snake case and variables and properties are camel 
case.

IMHO, passing arguments to the constructor in order is a good approach, but I 
think another option would be to give attributes to properties and map data 
appropriately when using PDO::FETCH_CLASS.

e.g.
```
#[ColumnName('user_name')]
private string $userName;
```

In addition to the concerns mentioned in the pull request, I'm also concerned 
that more modes with similar functionality will confuse users.

Regards.
