I ran into this problem today with some code by a programmer who should have known better. The problem is not with PHP, it's with programmers who learn one version and then don't keep up and change as the language evolves and improves (ain't nobody got time for that.) One guy I work with is still programming PHP like it's year 2000. It's maddening. PHP7 is a very nice language. People decided JavaScript was cool after "The Good Parts" came out. The same is true for PHP. If you learned PHP3 in high school and are still banging out code like you did then, you're the problem, not the language.
