Answer 1

When we have fields with same name in a form and it is submitted via GET/POST, it is bound to be send as an array of params with the same name. And the server would be expecting the values as such. So, Even if you somehow remove that [], it ceases to be an array, and the server will get only one value. jQuery param method is designed, with the same thing in mind.
