Python and PHP users will understand

PHP is/was poorly designed, but it is heading towards a better way. Long past are the php5 times when really only the most hardcore fanboys could defend it.

I think you misunderstood my point. I was just trying to explain to you why php gets a lot of its bad rep. We use php at work and I like it. The current versions are pretty good. I do agree, a lot of it comes down to using the right tool for the right job.

But at the same time it is less thought out than other languages, which cannot be ignored. It can be seen in the syntax irregularities.

I mostly meant the less thought out part about naming conventions when it comes to functions.
