Description:
------------
Documentation states curl_init() as:

curl_init ([ string $url = NULL ] ) : resource

but the result is an object, not a resource.

Test script:
---------------
$ch = curl_init();

if (is_object($ch)) {
    echo '$ch is an object';
} 

if (is_resource($ch)) {
    echo '$ch is a resource';
} 




Expected result:
----------------
Expected:
$ch is a resource

Currently:
$ch is an object

That is a deliberate change[1].

It is the result of an intentional change: https://php.watch/versions/8.0/resource-CurlHandle (but I could have linked the related upgrading note).

Please note that PHP 8.0 migrated quite a few other resources to objects as well. You can refer to the documentation or https://github.com/php/php-tasks/issues/6 for more information.

Sorry, my bad.
Therefore is a documentation issue.

Thank you both.

Well, EN docs have already been updated, so this is likely about a
translation.  Which one?

That's correct.
