I think this proposal makes sense ... but in some cases it can be difficult to decide the annotation type. @ORM and @Assert obviously define their own groups, but what about @Cache, @Method, @Route, @Security Are these four annotations of the same type?

this rule is in the "Documentation" section. This means it's focused on the PHPdoc annotations

I see. But my question remains ... what is an "annotation type"?

@param, @return, @throws, @author are all different types. Just different annotations

OK. I finally understood it. So maybe we could say something like "group annotations by name"?

I just copied the text from php-cs-fixer:

phpdoc_separation [symfony]
Annotations in phpdocs should be grouped together so that annotations of the same type immediately follow each other, and annotations of a different type are separated by a single blank line.

follow each other, and annotations of a different type are separated by a
single blank line;

* Omit the ``@return`` tag if the method does not return anything;

* The ``@package`` and ``@subpackage`` annotations are not used.
