Comment (by dd32):

 cross-linking to #31245 which has a lot of input on `multi_get()`,
 https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/31245#comment:6 is an example of
 how splintered the current ecosystem is.

 I'm hesitant to comment here, as I think it should be handled in #31245
 simply due to the amount of discussion there (or someone should summarize
 that ticket here, and direct all further discussion here).

 I think the only route forward here will be to find a new name, as the
 `wp_cache_get_multi()` function signature is just not viable thanks to
 existing users (even the ones which have insane return values)
 `wp_cache_multi_get()`? `wp_multi_cache_get()`? `wp_cache_get_multiple()?`
 `wp_cache_getS()`?
