Is it correct to pass the required objects as method arguments?

Question

PHP

There are classes Controller and Saver. The controller in the method creates an EntrySaver by passing it to the constructor from its Request and Response properties. Then it pulls various saver methods, after which (if the methods returned the desired values) it runs the $saver->save() method...
But! To save the data (they are passed in the Request object), the saver needs two more objects - ObjectFacroty and Assembler. Is it okay to pass these objects to the ->save() method, or should we pass them at the very beginning - to the saver constructor?

class Controller
{
    ...
    public function add()
    {
            ...
            $saver = new Saver($this->request, $this->response);
            ...
            $saver->check();
            ...
            $saver->save($this->p_factory->getObjectFactory(), $this->factory->getAssembler());
            ...
    }
    
    ...
}

Yes, it doesn’t matter, objects are still passed by reference, so it’s impossible to gain in the resources spent here. Well, if the objects are used only in one method, and are not the state of the root object, then yes, I would pass them as method parameters.
