That is a lot of free function you have to give up for object syntax. I guess as a developer you really have decide if there is a strong benefit from producing an object rather than an array. @Doug: json_encode() works perfectly on associative arrays.

I also think the syntax looks a little cleaner. I use stdclass objects mostly when I need to serialize them in json to the page to use in javascript. I also think the syntax looks a little cleaner.
