The one killer feature PHP has to offer over other languages: 
ease of efficient deployment on cheap/free hosting.  When I go to 
deploy Python projects, it ends up either being as slow CGI on 
the cheap/free hosting, or it ends up needing 
WSGI/gunicorn/whatever on a more expensive service (whether 
shared, VPS, or full hardware).

I dream of a day that deploying Python/Django apps is as 
cheap/easy as deploying PHP code.
