Got it. Yes, no specialities. In case you deem it necessary I could add
an assertion to an existing test. Something like:
```
class Foo { public function __construct( public readonly string $a =
'bar') {} }
var_dump(new
ReflectionClass(Foo::class)->getProperty('a')->hasDefaultValue()) //
bool(false)
```
To me it feels just not too related, and in other reviews I got
commented for over-testing.
But up to you. Feel free to let me know.
I don't think an extra test is necessary. I just want to be able to
point folks who will inevitably run into this and raise bug reports to
an official document that says “we thought about this, this is working
as expected” :-) It will also be useful for the migration guide and any
other blog post about “what's new in PHP” (particularly the less
well-researched or AI-written ones).
Maybe "no specialities" can "promote" you from team abstain to team
yes. ;)
Personally I've never had a desired to have this capability, so it will
remain an Abstain from me to leave the decision to folks who would
actually make use of it.
