You always have to use the right tool for the job though. The question
is "are we teaching the inexperienced programmers what the right tools
are?

I doubt it!

PHP looks a lot like C, and people are taught C in college.

So instead of working with something more abstract (like Smalltalk, Ruby, et. al.) they slog through the bits with a relatively low-level language like PHP.
