I've used PHP from 1998 to 2016. Things I remember I didn't like about/around PHP: - too many aspects of the language were dependent on config/php.ini. - it had errors and exceptions. I just wanted exceptions. - was not

I won't argue about the complexity and I'm not a fan of JS either... but surely you can agree that firing a browser console and do live dom manipulations can bring instant joy ?

Low-tech is fine, however I'll assume your example has been excessively simplified for the sake of brievity because as-is it's prone to break your page.
