Doctrine Hydration Modes
The application utilizes Doctrine's query result hydration, specifically targeting scalar output for performance.
Configuration Uncertainty
When transitioning between array and scalar hydration modes within a single repository call, there is uncertainty regarding the preservation of internal data type fidelity.
Does a change from array to scalar hydration alter the underlying PHP scalar type for complex database types?
Is the scalar result guaranteed to match the database column type without explicit casting?
