Form Button

Useful to send data to the server without relying on the user clicking on a link, which would send a GET request, which should not be used for destructive operations (operations with database writing).

For reference, see https://softwareengineering.stackexchange.com/questions/188860/why-shouldnt-a-get-request-change-data-on-the-server and https://stackoverflow.com/questions/46585/when-do-you-use-post-and-when-do-you-use-get

You could use it for a like button, a confirm button, a delete button...

Button with data passed

You need to activate an account. You send a link containing an activation token to the user. You could stop there and just activate the account once a GET request is sent to this url.

Symfony - Increment Database Field Properly

You must do this at the database level, not at the PHP/ORM level or it could result in a race condition.
