Out of interest, why wouldn't PHP be a consideration? I thought it was pretty good now a days...

Because it’s a) scripting language b) not even a good one.

Even if modern versions somehow overcome those limitations - nobody would bet an expensive project while there are plenty of more relevant alternatives

Have you looked at startup jobs? Python is still super common despite a).

Regarding b) -- that's just like, your opinion, man. (I'd choose python over it any day, personally, but PHP with laravel is pretty great)

Ruby, Python and JS are all scripting languages. Many "expensive projects" are created with them.
