Not true. The FreeBSD based router m0n0wall uses php for all of it's startup/init scripts. There's nothing intrinsically webbish about php although the original intent was to cook up something similar to ASP (from whatever I have gathered by listening to Rasmus Lerdorf at FOSS.in) . As for python based templating systems that allow python code and html to be mixed together, there are quite a few - Kid, for instance. Classic case of 'Worse is better'.
