I see and understand your points, but it's not all bad. For instance, I'm working on a project that has a web interface and command line tools. Since PHP supports and works in both environments, I am able to reuse my PHP classes in both interfaces. This has greatly reduced the development time and centralized the majority of the code. Being able to do that is actually a big plus in my book, even if it does feel a little funny using PHP where Perl or Python would be generally used.
