Comment (by hellofromTonya):

 Replying to @adrianduffell comment:25
 >It looks like there is a backwards compatibility break in a scenario
 where dynamic properties are added to WP_Term objects and those are being
 cast with (array)

 IMO Approach 2 is not a backward compatibility (BC) break.

 Why? The `WP_Term::to_array()` method has been available since `WP_Term`
 introduction back in WP 4.4.0. While type casting returned the same
 result, this method is there to be used as the means to convert the term
 object to an array.
