Please, remove laminas/laminas-escaper. Use htmlentities($string, ENT_QUOTES | ENT_HTML5, 'UTF-8').

Please, remove kint-php/kint. Use var_dump() with xDebug.

Laminas escaper is a much more secure than htmlentities alone, and takes into account many other attacks, including things like charset manipulations, etc.

Kint is also much more powerful than var_dump and can show much more information.

Sorry - they're both staying.
