Infinite recursion like this is considered a user bug. Since you have Xdebug installed, while
developing and testing, you can set the
[xdebug.max_stack_frames](https://xdebug.org/docs/all_settings#max_stack_frames) setting to a
relatively large number and it will stop the script if you reach that limit.
Regarding memory usage, it's quite possible - even common - to exhaust the stack before you
exhaust memory.
