What are some potential pitfalls to be aware of when working with multidimensional arrays in PHP?

One potential pitfall when working with multidimensional arrays in PHP is accidentally overwriting values when using nested loops to access and manipulate the data. To avoid this, make sure to keep track of the indexes properly and avoid reassigning values unintentionally. 

// Example code snippet to avoid overwriting values in multidimensional arrays
$multiArray = [
    [1, 2, 3],
    [4, 5, 6],
    [7, 8, 9]
];

foreach ($multiArray as $key1 => $subArray) {
    foreach ($subArray as $key2 => $value) {
        // Perform operations on $value without overwriting it
    }
}
