As you say, such behavior varies from DB to DB. However, with the current implementation of PDO, we don't know how it will work until you actually try it, and each driver has different behavior, so it is important to describe how it works in the documentation is also in a difficult situation. Personally, I think it would be better if specifications could be standardized to a certain extent, within reason, but what do you think? Regards.
