Why is it recommended to store text content in its raw format and only format it with line breaks when displaying it, rather than constantly replacing them during editing in PHP?

Storing text content in its raw format and only adding line breaks when displaying it helps to maintain the original content and prevent accidental loss of formatting during editing. Constantly replacing line breaks during editing in PHP can lead to errors and inconsistencies in the text. By separating content from presentation, you can ensure that the text is displayed correctly every time.

// Store text content in its raw format
$text = "This is a sample text without line breaks.";

// Display the text with line breaks
echo nl2br($text);
