php is a tool. it has its benefits and its drawbacks. you shouldn't have to "defend" the language itself, but you should be able to defend your choice of language. if you don't like a language, go use another one.

i don't know if i'd classify most of these things as "dirty tricks". i would put taking actions on behalf of or as a user without their knowledge or consent as at least a level higher than a dirty trick.
