While this is true, I would say that your advice only applies if you have experience with other web frameworks from other languages. If you’re coming at it blind to any sort of web development, the features afforded to you by a web framework are really useful and helpful to understand.
For example, imagine someone who had never really thought about routing in a definitions file versus file based versus annotations. Three valid use cases that might not exist if if you have a background in something like hardware or if you come from a non-programming discipline.
If you do have that experience, you can rebuild almost any affordance in PHP at this point and it purely comes down to personal preference and how you like to write and design with code.
