Why doesn't mass assignment protection work everywhere?

Question

Laravel

Hello! I can’t understand what logic is used to protect against mass assignments in Laravel, the documentation doesn’t seem to say anything about this, or I don’t understand something.
Here are three examples:
Example 1:

Order::create([
    'field' => 10,
    'field2' => 15,
]);

Example 2:

Order::whereKey([1, 2])->update([
    'field' => 10,
    'field2' => 15,
]);

Example 3:

Order::find(1)->update([
    'field' => 10,
    'field2' => 15,
]);

As a result, example 1 and 3 do not work (as expected because fields are not allowed for mass assignments), but the second one works fine, why? And under what other options will it not work when using models?

Answer 1

Because the second option calls update on the entire selection, and not on a specific model. In this case, protection, events, mutators and other Eloquent goodies will not work.
