It is more advice from others + some learning desire as well. These same devs that know PHP very well also gave me the advice about RoR, PHP not scaling well and RoR being better equipped for the future, less bottlenecks, etc.
The last item is complete fluff, PHP will not go away.
I guess the simple things I do in PHP (MySQL querying, some string manipulation, etc) should not be a bottleneck.
When asked I could not name large scaled sites running PHP, but I could name at least 10 that were using RoR.....
