Why use the Builder pattern when you can pass an array to the constructor?

Question

PHP

I read on resources that one of the reasons for using the Builder pattern is to create an object with a large number of parameters. But why not just use an array passed to the constructor for this?

Answer 1

Firstly, hinting, without looking into an absurdly long array, you can determine which fields are there by IDE auto-hinting, and not type them manually.
Secondly - OOP goodies, such as inheritance, for example, create a base object with most of the fields you need everywhere, and if necessary, expand and customize.
