Ah, right, we either need to update the values (and add changelog
entries), or maybe not show the values at all.  We also need to
update related examples accordingly, e.g.
<https://www.php.net/manual/en/reflectionmethod.getmodifiers.php#refsect1-reflectionmethod.getmodifiers-examples>.

I agree that the manual should be clearer here. There are probably other similar constants which are
exposed from internal values and subject to change between versions.

* We should have a standard note such as "The values of constants may change between versions
or environments. It is recommended to always use the constants directly and not rely on the values
directly."
* Should we show the values for these at all, since users shouldn't be relying on them?

I'm sorry!
I forgot about this one...(*'omega'*)

It's not on the changelog, which I think is the most confusing thing about it.
I'd like to see the change of the actual value of algebraic constants in the changelog.

I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I think this is the essence of what I want to request.
